Two proofs from class,
1 - Let U, V, W be vector spaces over a field F, and suppose that the linear maps S:U-->V and T:V-->W are both one-to-one. Prove the composition ToS is one-to-one (injective).
2 - Let V be a finite dim. vector space over a field F, with linear maps S:V-->V and T:V-->V. Prove the composition ToS is invertible if and only if both S and T are invertible.
