exercise 1.1.11(2): measure_linear's conclusion dropped the D it existentially introduces, so as stated it claims linear maps preserve jordan measure exactly. counterexample: x ↦ 2x on [0,1] doubles the measure. the elementary-set version right above (measure_linear_of_elem) and measure_linear_det right below both already assume/use the D * factor, and the doc comment says "up to determinant scaling" - so this just brings the statement in line with its neighbors.

Exercise 1.1.11(2) states the linear image measure scales by D (the
witness the statement itself introduces), matching measure_linear_of_elem
and measure_linear_det right below it, plus the doc comment. As written
the RHS dropped D entirely, i.e. claimed linear maps preserve Jordan
measure exactly, which is false (e.g. x -> 2x doubles the measure of
[0,1]).
