Work Step by Step

Let $T:V \rightarrow W$ be a linear transformation Suppose $w \in Rng(T)$. There exists $v \in V$ such as $T(v)=w$ then $[w]_C=[T(v)]_C$ From Theorem 6.4.5, we have $[T(v)]_C=[T]^C_B[v]_B\\ \rightarrow [w]_C=[T]^C_B[v]_B$ Hence, $[w]_C$ is a column of the matrix $[T]^C_B$ For the second part, suppose $[w]_C \in$ colspace $([T]^C_B)$ Thus, $[w]_C=[T]^C_B[v]_B$ Since $[T(v)]_C=[T]^C_B[v]_B \rightarrow [w]_C=[T(v)]_C \rightarrow w=T(v)\\ \rightarrow w\in Rng(T)$
