Question: The transformation y = AX where turns a point with coordinates (x 1 , x 2 , x 3 ) into a point with coordinates

The transformation y = AX where

A = 8-1-4 4 4 7 1 -8 4 Y y = y Y3 [x and X X = X [X3]

turns a point with coordinates (x1, x2, x3) into a point with coordinates ( y1, y2, y3). Show that the coordinates of the points that transform into themselves satisfy the matrix equation BX = 0, where B = A – I, with I the identity matrix. Find the rank of B and hence deduce that for points which transform into themselves

[X X X3] = a[-3 -1 1]

where α is a parameter. Find AAT. What is the inverse of A? If y1 = 3, y2 = –1 and y3 = 2, determine the values of x1, x2 and x3 under this transformation.
