Let V be the vector space of functions that describes the vibration of mas-spring system (Refer \(\left\{ {\sin \omega t,\,\,\cos \omega t} \right\}\)to Exercise 19 in section 4.1.). Find a basis for V.

Exercises 23-26 concern a vector space V, a basis \(B = \left\{ {{{\bf{b}}_{\bf{1}}},....,{{\bf{b}}_n}\,} \right\}\)and the coordinate mapping \({\bf{x}} \mapsto {\left( {\bf{x}} \right)_B}\).
Given vectors, \({u_{\bf{1}}}\),….,\({u_p}\) and w in V, show that w is a linear combination of \({u_{\bf{1}}}\),….,\({u_p}\) if and only if \({\left( w \right)_B}\) is a linear combination of vectors \({\left( {{{\bf{u}}_{\bf{1}}}} \right)_B}\),….,\({\left( {{{\bf{u}}_p}} \right)_B}\).
Let \(V\) and \(W\) be vector spaces, and let \(T:V \to W\) be a linear transformation. Given a subspace \(U\) of \(V\), let \(T\left( U \right)\) denote the set of all images of the form \(T\left( {\mathop{\rm x}\nolimits} \right)\), where x is in \(U\). Show that \(T\left( U \right)\) is a subspace of \(W\).
Let S be a maximal linearly independent subset of a vector space V. In other words, S has the property that if a vector not in S is adjoined to S, the new set will no longer be linearly independent. Prove that S must be a basis of V. [Hint: What if S were linearly independent but not a basis of V?]
Question: Exercises 12-17 develop properties of rank that are sometimes needed in applications. Assume the matrix \(A\) is \(m \times n\).
13. Show that if \(P\) is an invertible \(m \times m\) matrix, then rank\(PA\)=rank\(A\).(Hint: Apply Exercise12 to \(PA\) and \({P^{ - 1}}\left( {PA} \right)\).)
Let be a basis of\({\mathbb{R}^n}\). .Produce a description of an \(B = \left\{ {{{\bf{b}}_{\bf{1}}},....,{{\bf{b}}_n}\,} \right\}\)matrix A that implements the coordinate mapping \({\bf{x}} \mapsto {\left( {\bf{x}} \right)_B}\). Find it. (Hint: Multiplication by A should transform a vector x into its coordinate vector \({\left( {\bf{x}} \right)_B}\)). (See Exercise 21.)
