Prove that T: V- W is a linear transformation if and only if
T(au + bv) = aT(u) + bT(v)
for all vectors u and v and all scalars a and b.
Getting Started: This is an "if and only if" statement, so you need to prove the statement in both directions. To prove that T is a linear transformation, you need to show that the function satisfies the definition of a linear transformation.
In the other direction, let T be a linear transformation. Use the definition and properties of a linear transformation to prove that
T(au + bv) = aT(u) + bT(v).
(i) Let T(au + bv) = aT(u) + bT(v). Show that T preserves the properties of vector addition and scalar multiplication by choosing appropriate values of a and b.
Let a and b be scalars and u and v be vectors in V. Suppose that for all possible values of a and b and all vectors u and v that T(au + bv) = aT(u) + bT(v).
Since the equality holds for all scalars a and b and all vectors u and v we are free to choose values for each of these quantities for our proof. Which of the following choices can be used to prove the first property of a linear
transformation, T(u + v) = T(u) + T(v)?
O Let u and v be arbitrary vectors in Vand let a = b = 1.
O Let u = v and let a and b be arbitrary scalars.
O Let u = v = I and let a and b be arbitrary scalars.
O Let u and v be arbitrary vectors in V and let a = -b.
O Let u = v = 0 and let a and b be arbitrary scalars.
O Let u and v be arbitrary vectors in V and let a = b = 0.
Similarly, which of the following choices for u, v, a, andb can be used to prove the second property of a linear transformation, T(cu) = cT(u)?
O Let u and v be arbitrary vectors in Vand let a = b.
O Let u be an arbitrary vector in V, v = 0, and let a and b be arbitrary scalars.
O Let u = v and let a = b = 0.5.
O Let u = v = 0 and let a = b = 1.
O Let u be an arbitrary vector in V, v = I, and let a and b be arbitrary scalars.
(ii) To prove the statement in the other direction, assume that Tis a linear transformation. Use the properties and definition of a linear transformation to show that T(au + bv) = aT(u) + bT(v).
Let T: V- W be a linear transformation, u and v be vectors in V, and a and b be scalars. Since V is a vector space, we know that au and bv are -Select---

T(au + bv) = ---Select---
