Answer

12 square units

Work Step by Step

S is a parallelogram determined by two vectors; $\textbf{vector 1}=\begin{bmatrix}-2\\3\end{bmatrix}$ $\textbf{vector 2}=\begin{bmatrix}-2\\5\end{bmatrix}$ area of parallelogram, $=|det[{\textbf{vector 1} \textbf{vector 2}}]$| $area=|det\begin{bmatrix}-2&-2\\3&5\end{bmatrix}|=|-10+6|=4$ Given T as a linear transformation and S as a set in T domain and $\textbf{A}=\begin{bmatrix}6&-3\\-3&2\end{bmatrix}$ To compute the area of the image of S; Let T(S) be a set of images of points in S $area\, of \,T(S) = |det A|.{\{area\, of\, S\}}=|det \begin{bmatrix}6&-3\\-3&2\end{bmatrix}|*4$ $area\, of \,T(S) =(|12-9|)*4=3*4=12$ square units
