Background

Let $V$ be a finite dimensional vector space over a field $F$, $B=\{v_{1},v_{2},v_{3},...,v_{n}\}$ be an ordered basis of $V$ and $v\in V$. Then $v=\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^{n}c_{i}v_{i}$ where $c_{i}\in F$. Then the coordinate vector of $v$ relative to $B$ is the column vector ${\begin{pmatrix}c_{1}\\c_{2}\\c_{3}\\...\\c_{n}\end{pmatrix}}$.

Let $W$ be a finite dimensional vector space over the same field $F$ and $K=\{v_{1},v_{2},v_{3},...,v_{m}\}$ be an ordered basis of $W$. Define a linear transformation $T:V\to W$. Then $T(v_{j})=\displaystyle \sum _{i=1}^{m}c_{ij}T(v_{j})$ where $c_{ij}\in F$. Then the matrix representation of $T$ in the ordered bases $B,K$ is the matrix ${\begin{pmatrix}c_{11}&c_{12}&c_{13}&...&c_{1n}\\c_{21}&c_{22}&c_{23}&...&c_{2n}\\c_{31}&c_{32}&c_{33}&...&c_{3n}\\c_{21}&c_{22}&c_{23}&...&c_{2n}\\...&...&...&...&...\\c_{m1}&c_{m2}&c_{m3}&...&c_{mn}\end{pmatrix}}$.

Boris's Problems

Let $B$ be the standard ordered basis of $P_{n}(F)$ and $K$ be the standard ordered basis of $F$.

Q1. What is the coordinate vector of $x^{2}+x^{5}$ relative to $B$?

Q2. Let $T:P_{n}\to F$ be a linear transformation that is defined by $T(f(x))=f(0)$. What is the matrix representation of $T$ in $B,K$?
