Understanding Transformations and Kernels

The video tutorial explains a transformation from R3 to P3, focusing on finding the basis for the image and kernel of the transformation. The image is defined as the span of x and x cubed, while the kernel consists of vectors in the form of zero zero c, indicating the span of the vector zero zero one. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the transformation's output and input to determine these bases.

What is the transformation T of vector abc defined as?

• ax squared plus bx

Why is the set containing ax and bx cubed not a suitable basis for the image?

• Because it ties the basis to specific values of a and b

• Because it includes non-linear terms

• Because it is not a complete set

• Because it is not in P3

What is the kernel of the transformation?

• The set of all input vectors that result in a non-zero polynomial

• The set of all output vectors that result in a non-zero vector

• The set of all input vectors that result in the zero polynomial

• The set of all output vectors that result in a zero vector
