**Matrix Expression for Educational Purposes**

Consider the expression for the matrix \([M]_{\mathcal{E}}\), where the matrix \(M\) is given by:

\[ 
M = \begin{bmatrix} 
-3 & 0 \\ 
8 & -4 
\end{bmatrix} 
\]

This matrix is a 2x2 matrix, with elements as follows:
- The element in the first row, first column is \(-3\).
- The element in the first row, second column is \(0\).
- The element in the second row, first column is \(8\).
- The element in the second row, second column is \(-4\).

The instruction is to give \([M]_{\mathcal{E}}\), which may refer to expressing the matrix \(M\) relative to a certain basis \(\mathcal{E}\) or performing a transformation related to this basis.

### Understanding Matrix Subspaces

**Given the Subspace:**

\[ 
H = \left\{ \begin{bmatrix} a & 0 \\ b & c \end{bmatrix} \middle| \ a, b, c \in \mathbb{R} \right\} 
\]

This notation defines \( H \) as the space consisting of 2x2 lower triangular matrices where each matrix has elements \( a, b, \) and \( c \) that are real numbers.

**Nature of \( H \):**

- \( H \) is identified as the space of lower triangular 2x2 matrices. A matrix is lower triangular if all elements above the main diagonal are zero.

**Basis of the Subspace:**

The set of matrices below is established as a basis for \( H \):

\[ 
\mathcal{E} = \left\{ \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}, \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}, \begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \right\} 
\]

- **Explanation of the Basis:**
  - The basis consists of matrices that span the subspace \( H \).
  - Each matrix represents a unique component of the lower triangular form.
  - The first matrix, \(\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\), contributes to the variation of the \(a\) component,
  - The second, \(\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 1 & 0 \end{bmatrix}\), influences the \(b\) component, 
  - Lastly, \(\begin{bmatrix} 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix}\), represents the \(c\) component.

These matrices enable any matrix in \( H \) to be expressed as a linear combination of the basis elements, demonstrating that they indeed form a basis of \( H \).
