# Question 13088: Evaluate a Possibly Rectangular Real Linear Map [Return to catalogue page 66](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/questions/page/66/) [← Question derivation index](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/questions/) · [Original question batch](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/practice/batch-20261014-advance-20261027-r05-general-linear-map-foundations/#q-20261014-advance-20261027-r05-general-linear-map-0013) This teaching derivation has second-context AI mathematical and bilingual semantic review, limited to the model and assumptions stated in this question. It has no human review or new Lean proof and does not promote the original question or MKO to Canonical truth. R0025-13088 · q-20261014-advance-20261027-r05-general-linear-map-0013 ## Original question and givens Use the complete rectangular matrix A=[[0, 2, -2], [0, 0, 2]] as a map from its column-coordinate space to its row-coordinate space, both over the reals. Matrix distributivity is a universal coordinate certificate. All vectors and any bias must have their respective input/output dimensions. Finite samples do not establish linearity of an arbitrary black box, or imply injectivity, surjectivity, boundedness or continuity beyond the stated claim. vector=[-1, 0, 2]. Give (matrix,vector,image). - G001 — Use the complete rectangular matrix A=[[0, 2, -2], [0, 0, 2]] as a map from its column-coordinate space to its row-coordinate space, both over the reals. Matrix distributivity is a universal coordinate certificate. All vectors and any bias must have their respective input/output dimensions. Finite samples do not establish linearity of an arbitrary black box, or imply injectivity, surjectivity, boundedness or continuity beyond the stated claim. vector=[-1, 0, 2]. Give (matrix,vector,image). ## Definition and scope Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate. - [mko-general-linear-map](https://ocme.evemisslab.com/en/mko/mko-general-linear-map/) ## Step-by-step derivation S001 · impliesBefore requested matrix image:matrix=[[0, 2, -2], [0, 0, 2]];input=[-1, 0, 2] After R^3->R^2;each output is its original row dot input Conditions: none Input dimension is the column count and output dimension the row count.The matrix may be rectangular;do not transpose it or invent coordinates.
