Linear operator find function
$begingroup$
Let $T(x,y)=(x,3x-y)$ be a linear operator on $R^2$ and let $f(x)=x^2-4$. Find $f(T)$
I'm very new to this and I'm stuck on what it's asking for. I'm guessing I make a matrix from the transformation and then use $rref$. I'm not sure where to go from there. Any guidance is appreciated.
I took matrix A and squared it and it returned the identity matrix. I then subtracted 4 times the identity matrix and got just (-3x, -3y). Can someone clarify what I'm doing incorrectly. Thanks

$T$ is realized by the matrix
$M =begin{bmatrix} 1 & 0 \ 3 & -1 \ end{bmatrix}$.
Then compute $M^2-4I$. Can you proceed ?

Thanks. I"m getting (-3x, -3y) by doing this but above says it should be (-3x, 6x-5y) . What am i missing?

Alternatively, since $f(x)= x^2- 4$, $f(T)(vec{x})= T^2(vec{x})+ 4vec{x}$ where $T^2$ is the composition of T with itself: $f(t)= T(T(vec{x})+ 4vec{x}$. $T(vec{x})= T(begin{bmatrix}x \ y end{bmatrix})= begin{bmatrix}x \ 3x- yend{bmatrix}$ so $T^2(vec{x})= begin{bmatrix}x \ 3x+ (3x- y)end{bmatrix}= begin{bmatrix}x \ 6x- yend{bmatrix}$.
So $fleft(Tleft(begin{bmatrix}x \ y end{bmatrix}right)right)= begin{bmatrix}x \ 6x- yend{bmatrix}- begin{bmatrix}4x \ 4yend{bmatrix}= begin{bmatrix}-3x \ 6x- 5yend{bmatrix}$.

Alternatively, since $f(x)= x^2- 4$, $f(T)(vec{x})= T^2(vec{x})+ 4vec{x}$ where $T^2$ is the composition of T with itself: $f(t)= T(T(vec{x})+ 4vec{x}$. $T(vec{x})= T(begin{bmatrix}x \ y end{bmatrix})= begin{bmatrix}x \ 3x- yend{bmatrix}$ so $T^2(vec{x})= begin{bmatrix}x \ 3x+ (3x- y)end{bmatrix}= begin{bmatrix}x \ 6x- yend{bmatrix}$.
So $fleft(Tleft(begin{bmatrix}x \ y end{bmatrix}right)right)= begin{bmatrix}x \ 6x- yend{bmatrix}- begin{bmatrix}4x \ 4yend{bmatrix}= begin{bmatrix}-3x \ 6x- 5yend{bmatrix}$.
