How to compute the image of a polytope after a linear transformation (formal proof) ?

I have been looking for a result with (formal proof) of the following question (exactly the same question as posed in https://mathoverflow.net/questions/179282/mathcalh-polyhedron-under-a-linear-map?noredirect=1&lq=1):



Let $P={x∈R^n∣Ax≤b}$ be a (bounded) polyhedron for $A∈R^{m×n}$ and $b∈R^m$, n,m>0.



Moreover, let $M:R^n→R^p$ be a linear map for $p≤n$.



I'm interested in computing a H-representation of $M⋅P={Cx∣x∈P}$



Also asked in: How to compute the image of a polyhedron under a linear transformation. Although the two first answers (switching to v-representation and then back to h-representation seems intuitively correct), is there anywhere I could find a formal proof of this?



Thank you all very much
