Push your limits with advanced challenges
Demonstrate the Rank-Nullity Theorem for a transformation T: R^3 -> R^2 defined by T(x, y, z) = (x + y, y + z).
💡 Hint: Compute the rank and nullity separately, then add them.
Given a transformation T: R^3 -> R defined by T(x,y,z) = x + y - z, find the kernel and demonstrate how this relates to the dimension of V.
💡 Hint: Set the transformation equation to zero and find the solution set.
