Image: Stretching by the linear transformation T(x)=3x

Stretching by the linear transformation T(x)=3x The one-dimensional linear transformation $T(x)=3x$ maps the interval $[0,1]$ to the interval $[0,3]$. The mapping stretched the interval into a new interval of three times the original length. The red to green gradient on the intervals illustrates the mapping, as each point on the interval is mapped a point of the same color.
