Multiplying a 3x3 matrix by a vector $(x, y, z)$ scales each column of the matrix (which represents a transformed basis vector) by the corresponding input coordinate and sums the results. This works because linear transformations preserve addition and scalar multiplication.

Conditions: Matrix is 3x3 representing a linear transformation; Input vector has coordinates $(x, y, z)$; Transformation is linear
