Finding the Matrix of a Linear Transformation With Polynomial Basis
If I have some given linear transformation $T:Vrightarrow V$ such that:
$T(p(x)) = p'(x) + x,p(0) + (x+1),p(1)$,
where $V$ is the space of rational polynomials of degree at most 2 with basis ${1 ,x,x^2}$.
Now I'm trying to figure out what $T$ actually does. $p'(x)$ means derivative of $p(x)$ and $p(0)$ is some rational number when $p(x)$ is evaluated in zero,which is just the constant term of $p(x)$.
What I'm confused by is this $p(1)$. Do I need an extra parameter when applying $T$ to a basis vector ?
For example:
$T(1)=0+x+(x+1),a$
where $a in mathbb{Q}$.

We'll consider how $T$ maps the given basis ${1,x,x^2}$ in order to find the matrix of this transformation in said basis:
$$T(1) = 0+1*x+(x+1)*1 = 2x+1$$
$$T(x) = 1 + 0*x + (x+1)*1 = x+2$$
$$T(x^2) = 2x + 0*x + (x+1)*1 =3x+1 $$
So, we have
$$T = begin{bmatrix} 1&2&1\2&1&3\0&0&0end{bmatrix}$$
Ohh I see, thank you. Just to be sure ,If it was $p'(0)$ instead of $p'(x)$ for, let's say, $T(x^2)$ ,transformation would look like $T(x^2) = 2*0 + 0*x+(x+1)*1$ ?

You have $p (x):=1$, the constant polynomial. Then $T (1)=0+x1+(x+1)1=2x+1$.

We'll consider how $T$ maps the given basis ${1,x,x^2}$ in order to find the matrix of this transformation in said basis:
$$T(1) = 0+1*x+(x+1)*1 = 2x+1$$
$$T(x) = 1 + 0*x + (x+1)*1 = x+2$$
$$T(x^2) = 2x + 0*x + (x+1)*1 =3x+1 $$
So, we have
$$T = begin{bmatrix} 1&2&1\2&1&3\0&0&0end{bmatrix}$$
Ohh I see, thank you. Just to be sure ,If it was $p'(0)$ instead of $p'(x)$ for, let's say, $T(x^2)$ ,transformation would look like $T(x^2) = 2*0 + 0*x+(x+1)*1$ ?

You have $p (x):=1$, the constant polynomial. Then $T (1)=0+x1+(x+1)1=2x+1$.
