Question
Let V and W be vector spaces, and let T W V ! W be a linear transformation. Given a subspace U of V , let T .U / denote the set of all images of the form T .x/, where x is in U. Show that T .U / is a subspace of W .

Answer:
#See solution for details:
Explanation:
-If
and
are in T(U) then there are
and
in U so that:
-Then :
-But
is in U since U is a subspace.
-Also, for any scalar c we have:
#Finally, 0=T(0) so 0 is in T(U) thus T(U) is a subspace of W as it satisfies the above 3 subspace conditions.
