Find the image of {1,3}", they are asking you to perform the matrix arithmetic [ 1 1 2 2 3 3 ] [ 1 3 ] . Asking if {3,6,9} is in the range is asking if there exists a matrix x such that [ 1 1 2 2 3 3 ] x = [ 3 6 9 ] (equivalently whether or not [ 3 6 9 ] is a linear combination of the columns [ 1 2 3 ] , [ 1 2 3 ] . It clearly is as it is simply three times the first column)
