Step 1 Solve Ax=0 to find all xR4.The audmented matrix is
[13920103400123023050].
Reduce matrix to reduced row echelon from
[1392|01034|00123|02305|0]R1R4R2+1/2R1R2R4+1/2R1R4[2305|0032332|00123|0092992|0]
[2305|0032332|00123|0092992|0]R2R4R32/9R2R3R4+1/3R2R4[2305|0092992|00002|00003|0]
[2305|0092992|00002|00003|0]1/3R4R4R32R4R3R29/2R4R2[2305|009290|00000|000010]

Step 2
[2305|009290|00000|00001|0]R15R4R1R3R42/9R2R2[2300|00120|00001|000000]
[2300|00120|00001|00000|0]R13R2R11/2R1R1[1030|00120|00001|000000].
Terefore, we get
x1+3x3=0x1=3x3
x1+2x3=0x1=2x3
x3=x3
x4=0.
That is
x=[x1x2x3x4]=[3x32x3x30]=x3[3210]
Hense, the required vectors are
x=x3[3210]
where x3R4.
Result
x=x3[3210]

Answer:
X={[4x4+9t2x43ttx4]|x4,t}
Explanation:
Let X=[x1x2x3x4] be the vector in 4. Multiplying A with X, we have:
[1392103401232305][x1x2x3x4]=[0000].
Performing the matrix multiplication, we get the following system of equations:
x1+3x2+9x3+2x4=0x1+3x34x4=0x2+2x3+3x4=02x1+3x2+5x4=0
To solve this system, we can use various methods such as Gaussian elimination or matrix inversion. Let's use Gaussian elimination here to find the solutions.
Converting the system of equations into an augmented matrix, we have:
[1392|01034|00123|02305|0]
Performing row operations to obtain the row-echelon form:
[1392|00366|00123|003189|0][1392|00123|00366|003189|0][1392|00123|00000|000018|0]
From the row-echelon form, we can see that the third and fourth rows correspond to the same
equation. This means there are two free variables in the system. We can choose x2 and x4 as the free variables.
Expressing x1 and x3 in terms of the free variables, we have:
x1=3x29x32x4
x3=t (where t is a parameter representing x3)
Substituting these expressions back into the equation for x2, we get:
x2=2x43t
Finally, the general solution for x is:
x=[3x29x32x4x2x3x4]=[3(2x43t)9t2x42x43ttx4]=[6x4+9t2x42x43ttx4]=[4x4+9t2x43ttx4]
where x4 and t can take any real values.
Thus, the set of all solutions x is given by:
X={[4x4+9t2x43ttx4]|x4,t}

To find all the vectors in ℝ⁴ that are mapped to the zero vector by the transformation X → AX, where A is the given matrix:
A=[1392103401232305]
We need to solve the equation AX = 0.
First, let's write the augmented matrix [A|0] and row reduce it to its echelon form:
[13920103400123023050]
Row 2 = Row 2 - Row 1:
[13920036600123023050]
Row 4 = Row 4 + 2 * Row 1:
[139200366001230091890]
Row 4 = Row 4 + 3 * Row 2:
[13920036600123000090]
Row 3 = Row 3 + (1/3) * Row 2:
[13920036600001000090]
Row 1 = Row 1 - 9 * Row 3:
[130160036600001000090]
Row 2 = Row 2 + 2 * Row 3:
[130160036000001000090]
Row 1 = Row 1 + 16 * Row 4:
[13000036000001000090]
Row 2 = - (1/3) * Row 2:
[13000012000001000090]
Row 1 = Row 1 - 3 * Row 2:
[10600012000001000090]
Row 1 = Row 1 + 6 * Row 3:
[10000012000001000090]
Row 4 = Row 4 + 9 * Row 3:
[10000012000001000000]
From the row echelon form, we can see that the system has infinitely many solutions. We can write the solution set as:
x=[2t2tt0],t
Therefore, all the vectors in ℝ⁴ that are mapped to the zero vector by the transformation X → AX are of the form [2t2tt0], where t is a real number.
