Fact A transformation T from R n to R m is<br />
l<strong>in</strong>ear iff<br />
a. T (v + w) = T (v) + T ( w), for all v, w <strong>in</strong> R n ,<br />
and<br />
b. T (kv) = kT (v), for all v <strong>in</strong> R n and all scalars<br />
k.<br />
Proof<br />
Idea: To prove the <strong>in</strong>verse, we must show a<br />
matrix A such that T (x) = Ax. <strong>Consider</strong> a<br />
transformation T from R n to R m that satisfy<br />
(a) and (b), f<strong>in</strong>d A.<br />
