{\bf 2a.} Find the standard matrix $[T]_{std}$ for the following
linear transformation.
$$
T:R^2\rightarrow R^2
\quad
\hbox{such that}
\quad
T\pmatrix{a\cr b}
=
\pmatrix{2a+b\cr a-b}
$$
\bigskip
To solve, apply the transformation to standard
basis vectors.
$$
T\pmatrix{1\cr0}
=
\pmatrix{2\cr1},
\quad
T\pmatrix{0\cr1}
=
\pmatrix{1\cr-1}
$$
The results become the columns of the standard matrix.
$$[T]_{std}=\pmatrix{2&1\cr1&-1}$$
Multiply to check.
$$
\pmatrix{2&1\cr1&-1}
\pmatrix{a\cr b}
=
\pmatrix{2a+b\cr a-b}
$$
