Consider the following maps of polynomials \(S:\mathcal{P}\rightarrow\mathcal{P}\) and \(T:\mathcal{P}\rightarrow\mathcal{P}\) defined by

\[ S(h(x))= 2 \, h\left(-5\right) + 4 \, h'\left(-1\right) \hspace{1em} \text{and} \hspace{1em} T(h(x))= 3 \, x - 3 \, h'\left(x\right) \]

Explain why one these maps is a linear transformation and why the other map is not.

Answer:

\(S\) is linear and \(T\) is not linear.
