Question:

If \(T_1:R^3\to R^2\) and \(T_2:R^2\to R^2\) are two linear transformations defined by \(T_1(x,y,z)=(3x,4y-z)\) and \(T_2(x,y)=(-x,y)\), then \(T_2T_1\) is

Show Hint

For \(T_2T_1\), always apply \(T_1\) first and then \(T_2\).
  • \((-3x,4y+z)\)
  • \((-3x,4y-z)\)
  • \((3x,4y+z)\)
  • not defined

The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Concept:
The composition \(T_2T_1\) means \[ T_2T_1=T_2\circ T_1 \] So we first apply \(T_1\), then apply \(T_2\).

Step 1: Apply \(T_1\).
\[ T_1(x,y,z)=(3x,4y-z) \] This gives an ordered pair in \(R^2\).

Step 2: Apply \(T_2\).
The transformation \(T_2\) is \[ T_2(u,v)=(-u,v) \] Here, \[ u=3x,\qquad v=4y-z \] Therefore, \[ T_2(3x,4y-z)=(-3x,4y-z) \]

Step 3: Final answer.
\[ \boxed{(-3x,4y-z)} \]
