For any vectors u, v and w, show that the vectors u+v, u+w and v+w form a linearly dependent set.
Write in words how to read each of the following:

{x∈R├|x≤0 or x≥1┤}
The symmetric difference of A and B, denoted by A B, is the set containing those elements in
either A or B, but not in both A and B.
a) Find the symmetric difference o f { 1, 3 , 5 } and { 1, 2, 3 } .
b) Determine whether the symmetric difference is associative; that is, if A, B, and C are sets, does it follow that
A (B C) = (A B) C?
Let f be the function from R to R defined by f(x) = x2 •
Find
a) f-1 ({1}).
b) f-1 ({x \ 0 < x < I }).
c) f-1 ({x \ x > 4}).
Determine whether the given set S is a subspace of the Vector space V.

Let AB = Im, where A is an m×n matrix and B is an n×m matrix. If y ∼ MVN(μ,In) and BA is symmetric, find the distribution of yT BAy.
Determine which of the following transformations are linear transformations.
A. The transformation T defined by T(x1,x2,x3)=(1,x2,x3)T(x1,x2,x3)=(1,x2,x3)
B. The transformation T defined by T(x1,x2)=(2x1−3x2,x1+4,5x2)T(x1,x2)=(2x1−3x2,x1+4,5x2).
