Suppose V and W are finite-dimensional and T ∈ L(V, W).
Show that with respect to each choice of bases of V and W, the matrix of T has at least dim range T nonzero entries.
Please assist.
Let be a basis of V, be a basis of range T, be a basis of W. Then because each is non zero(because the list is lin. Ind.) for each
,at least one of is non zero ,and so has at least dim range T non zero entries.
