Find a linear transformation defined by $T(0,1,2) = (3,1,2)$ and $T(1,1,1) = (2,2,2)$. [closed]
$begingroup$
The transformation here (as per my calculations) will be $Tcolon U rightarrow V$ such that $T(x,y,z) = (y+z, 3y-z, 2y)$ where $z=-x+2y$.
Now what should $U$ be $Bbb R^3$ or a subset of $Bbb R^3$?

There will be many linear maps that do this, since you have only specified where a 2 dimensional subspace goes

@qbert I could only find a single transformation. Can you hint how to find others?

To find others just extend ${(0,1,2),(1,1,1)}$ to a basis for $mathbb R^3$. For instance, you could use $(1,0,0)$. Then just map it to different vectors to get other examples.

If this is exactly the problem as it was presented to you (where did it come from, by the way?), then it’s common to assume that $T:mathbb R^3tomathbb R^3$ was intended. If this is from some textbook, compare this exercise to other examples and exercises in the book to be sure.

If you want a linear transformation $T$ such that $T(u_1)=v_1$ and $T(u_2)=v_2$ where $u_1$ and $u_2$ are linearly independent, then we want $T(alpha u_1+beta u_2)=alpha T(u_1)+beta T(u_2)$ for scalars $alpha,beta$, and then $T$ is defined on the subspace $operatorname{span}(u_1,u_2)$. Also, the range will be $operatorname{span}(v_1,v_2)$.

Yes, I was also thinking the same, but needed some corroboration. Thanks.
