Math Problem Statement
Let a linear map $T:R^2 -> R^3$ defined by $T\begin{pmatrix}2\1\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}2\3\-3\end{pmatrix}$, $T\begin{pmatrix}1\2\end{pmatrix}=\begin{pmatrix}-2\4\0\end{pmatrix}$.
Then $T\begin{pmatrix}1\-4\end{pmatrix}$ is equal to
a. $\begin{pmatrix}{r}0\4\end{pmatrix}$
b. $\begin{pmatrix}{r}6\4\0\end{pmatrix}$
c. $\begin{pmatrix}{r}10\-6\-6\end{pmatrix}$
d. $\begin{pmatrix}{r}2\0\2\end{pmatrix}$
e. $\begin{pmatrix}{r}-8\4\8\end{pmatrix}$
Solution
We have already determined that:
Using the given transformations:
Substituting these into our equation:
Therefore, , which corresponds to option c.
Thus, the correct answer is:
c.
