## Original question and givens

Use B(x,y)=x^T A y over the real coordinate space with square integer matrix A=[[3, -2], [4, 2]]. All input vector dimensions must match the matrix. Distributivity proves linearity separately in both slots for all real vectors and scalars; individual integer evaluations illustrate that fixed formula, not a black-box sampling proof. Symmetry, positive definiteness, nondegeneracy and inner-product qualification are additional conditions. x=[-2, -2], y=[-1, -3]. Give (matrix,x,y,value).

## Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

## Step-by-step derivation

S001 · impliesBefore

fixed real matrix=[[3, -2], [4, 2]];B(x,y)=sum_i sum_j x_i*A_ij*y_j

After

distributivity proves real linearity in each slot separately for all vectors and scalars

Conditions: none

Distributivity expands any real linear combination in either slot of the finite double sum,giving separate universal linearity certificates.Integer instances evaluate this fixed formula,not prove a black box by sampling.

S002 · impliesBefore

requested form:matrix=[[3, -2], [4, 2]];first slot=[-2, -2];second slot=[-1, -3]

After

B(first,second)=first^T*(matrix*second);slot order fixed

Conditions: none

First multiply A by the second slot,then dot with the first.A general matrix is not symmetric,so the two slots cannot be exchanged.
