Question
number 3
Explanation / Answer
3. Since TX = Ax, the range of T is same as Col(A). To determine Col(A), we will reduce A to its RREF as under:
Add -2 times the 1st row to the 2nd row
Add -3 times the 1st row to the 3rd row
Multiply the 2nd row by -1/2
Add 2 times the 2nd row to the 3rd row
Add -1 times the 2nd row to the 1st row
Then the RREF of A is I3. This implies that the columns of A are linearly independent. Hence a basis for Range(T)= Col(A) is { (1,2,3)T,(1,0,1)T,(0,0,1)T}.
