Consider the linear maps T:R4→R3T:\mathbb{R}^4\to\mathbb{R}^3 such that T(1,1,1,1)=0T(1,1,1,1) = \mathbf 0 and every output T(v)T(\mathbf v) lies in the plane x+y+z=0x + y + z = 0. These maps form a subspace of the 1212-dimensional space of all linear maps R4→R3\mathbb{R}^4\to\mathbb{R}^3. What is its dimension?
