Calculation:
For the vector space V, that contains all 2×2 matrices
Consider two matrices be lie in that vector space V be,
A=[abcd]B=[pqrs] and
Such that
T(A)=a + 2b  c + d
T(B)=p + 2q  r + s
Perform additional operation.
A + B=[abcd]+[pqrs]
=[a+p+b+qc+r+d+s]
And,
T(A) + T(B)=(a + 2b  c + d) + (p + 2q  r + s)
=a + p + 2b + 2q  c  r + d + s
=(a + p) + 2(b + q)  (c + r) + (d + s)
Also, T(A + B)=(a + p) + 2(b + q)  (c + r) + (d + s)
Thus it shows that T(A+B)=T(A)+T(B), that means it satisfies the addition property
Consider the condition of
T(kA)=ka + 2kb  kc + kd
=k(a + 2b  c + d)
=kT(A)
So the following expression also satisfies the scalar property.
Answer:
As for the vector space V, the property of addition and scalar are satisfied. Thus the expression of T(A)=a+2bc+d is the linear transformation
