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.
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.
Standard basis vectors give B(e_i,e_j)=A_ij,so a mismatch immediately refutes symmetry.All opposite entries must agree for the universal A=A^T certificate.
If A=A^T,exchanging indices in the double sum gives symmetry for all real vectors.Symmetry still does not imply positive definiteness,nondegeneracy or an inner product;the zero matrix is an example.

Result
([[3, -2], [4, 2]], [0, 1, -2, 4], No, symmetry_is_extra_not_bilinearity)
The full substitutions and premise checks give the original answer; source identity,format and status are unchanged.
