The following is known about the system of linear equations given by   ⁣M ⁣‾   x⃗=y⃗\M \, \vx = \vec{y}:
  • There is a unique solution for any y⃗ ∈ R5\vec{y} \, \in \, \mathbb{R}^{5}.
  • If one interchanges the 3rd and 4th rows and then adds twice the third row to the first before finally multiplying the 2nd and 4th rows by 3,   ⁣M ⁣‾  \M will be in its RREF.
  • The columns of   ⁣M ⁣‾  \M are a basis for R5\mathbb{R}^5.
  •   ⁣M ⁣‾  \M is the matrix representation of the composition of 4 transformations T1T_1, T2T_2, T3T_3, T4T_4 (in that order).
Given the above, find the matrix representation of the transformation T:R5,5→R5,5T:\mathbb{R}^{5,5} \to \mathbb{R}^{5,5} such that T(  ⁣M ⁣‾  )=I ⁣‾ 5T(\M) = \I_5, where I ⁣‾ 5\I_5 is the 5×55 \times 5 identity matrix.
