Answer

onto, but not one to one

Work Step by Step

$A=[T(e_1)\ \ T(e_2)\ \ T(e_3)]=\begin{bmatrix} 1&4&-5\\ 3&-7&4 \end{bmatrix}$~$\begin{bmatrix} 1&0&-1\\ 0&1&-1 \end{bmatrix}$ Because A has a pivot in each row, the linear transformation is onto, but because it does not have a pivot in each column, it is not one to one.
