Question
Find the standard matrix \(A\) for the given linear operator, and determine whether that matrix is diagonalizable. If diagonalizable, find a matrix \(P\) that diagonalizes \(A\).
\(T\left(x_{1}, x_{2}\right)=\left(2 x_{1}-x_{2}, x_{1}+x_{2}\right)\)
Solution
The first step in solving 5 problem number trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Find the standard matrix \(A\) for the given linear operator, and determine whether that matrix is diagonalizable. If diagonalizable, find a matrix \(P\) that diagonalizes \(A\). \(T\left(x_{1}, x_{2}\right)=\left(2 x_{1}-x_{2}, x_{1}+x_{2}\right)\)
From the textbook chapter Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
