Homework Statement


Let B = {(1,1,1),(1,2,2),(2,3,4)} be an ordered basis of R3, and let B` be the standard basis of R3.

Find the transition matrix from B to B` and use it to find the coordinates of (1,2,3)T with respect to B.

The Attempt at a Solution


Is it correct to apply the following?
u1 = 1(u`1) + 1(u`2) + 1(u`3)
u2 = 1(u`1) + 2(u`2) + 2(u`3)
u3 = 2(u`1) + 3(u`2) + 4(u`3)
