    Image spanned by its eigenvectos

    Here's the question I'm stuck at: Suppose a mapping from R^2 -> R^2 is defined by some 2x2 matrix W. Is the image of W spanned by the eigenvectors of W? Why or why not? The Attempt at a Solution I know that the eigenvectos of W for a linearly independent set. I also know that the set...
