Let $L: mathbb{R}^2rightarrow mathbb{R}^2$ be a linear operator. If $L((1,2)^T)=(-2,3)^T$ and $L((1,-1)^T)=(5,2)^T$, find the value of $L((7,5)^T).$



Is there a way to solve these kinds of problems? I only know if $L(alpha v_1+beta v_2)=alpha L(v_1)+beta L(v_2)$, then the vector space is said to be a linear transformation.

          Let your transformation matrix $L=begin{bmatrix}a&b\c&dend{bmatrix}$. Then $L((1,2)^T)=(-2,3)^T$ and $L((1,-1)^T)=(5,2)^T$ give $$begin{align}&a+2b=-2 &c+2d=3\&a-b=5 &c-b=2.end{align}$$ Solving we get $L=begin{bmatrix}dfrac{8}{3}&dfrac{-7}{3}\dfrac{7}{3}&dfrac{1}{3}end{bmatrix}$. $:$So $L((7,5)^T)=begin{bmatrix}7\18end{bmatrix}$.

          Right, so you have to find $alpha$ and $beta$ with
          $$ alpha(1,2)+beta(1,-1)=(7,5)$$

            I figured α equals 4 and β equals 3, then I write L(7,5)^T=4*(-2,3)^T+3*(5,2)^T and I get the answer is (7,18)^T, is it correct?
