    Linear Transformation from R3 to R3

    "There is a linear transformation T from R3 to R3 such that T (1, 0, 0) = (1,0,−1), T(0,1,0) = (1,0,−1) and T(0,0,1) = (1,2,2)" - why is this the case? Thank you.

    Codomain and Range of Linear Transformation

    Standard matrix for T is: $$P=\begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 & 0\\ 0 & 1 & -1 \end{bmatrix}$$ (i) Since matrix P is already in reduced row echelon form and each row has a pivot point, ##T## is onto mapping of ##\mathbb R^3 \rightarrow \mathbb R^2## (ii) Since there is free variable in matrix P, T is...
