The Attempt at a Solution

The paragraph a is the only one that I have some idea of how to solve it, and I made a solution, although I do not know if it is right:

a)

The b and c, how could I solve them?.

 

[psi^]

The vector input in f is linear combination of the basis (and so is the output vector because its an endomorphism).
think f like this:
$$f(x_1, x_2, x_3) = (x_2 + x_3, x_1 + x_3, x_2 - x_1)$$

Hints:
a) multiply A by $$(x_1, x_2, x_3)$$ and verify results
b) if Av = v then v has to be a combination of the columns of A
c1) you get the image from the muliplying A by a input, say $$(x_1, x_2, x_3)$$, check a)
c2) you get the kernel from knowing which vectors v get $$f(v) = \bar{0}$$, solve the system.
