Edexcel FP1 HELP URGENTLY!!

Do we need to know Linear transformation properties? Is example 11 in the FP1 textbook (Pg 83) something that could be asked? If so, can someone please explain! Help!?!

You mean these?

T(cx)=cT(x) T(c\vec{x}) = cT(\vec{x})

T(x+y)=T(x)+T(y) T(\vec{x} + \vec{y}) = T(\vec{x}) + T(\vec{y})

I doubt anything regarding this would be asked.

Ive done nearly every paper and haven't seen it come up. Just remember, for a transformation to be linear, the origin must not be transformed (ie 0,0 becomes 0,0 after the transformation). The second rule is that the operations must be linear (ie if it has x^2 or the multiplication of 2 variables xy then its not linear). If the second rule comes up, just say "transformation is not linear as 'xy' is not linear"
