Let Pn denote the vector space of
polynomials in the variable x of degree n or less
with real coefficients. Let D : P3 - P2 be the
function that sends a polynomial to its derivative.
That is, D(p(x)) = p' (x) for all polynomials
p(x) = P3. Is D a linear transformation?
Let p(x)
=
a³x³ + ²x² + a₁ + a₁ and
q(x) = b3x³ + b₂x² + b₁x + b₁ be any two
polynomials in P3 and c E R.
a. D(p(x) + q(x)) =
. (Enter a3 as a3, etc.)
D(p(x)) + D(q(x)) =
Does
D(p(x) + q(x)) = D(p(x)) + D(q(x))
for all p(x), q(x) = P3?
