Change of variables with a double integral

I have to write a code for changing variables from (x,y) to (u,v) with no in built matlab features. I am given four points in (x,y) and then told to transform it to (u,v) as (0,0) P1 to this point,(1,0) P2 to this point, (0,1) P3 to this point, and (1,1) P4 to this point. In our notes we are given that
x = au + bv +c or x = au + b and y = du + ev + f or y = cv + d to change the function from f(x,y) to f(u,v) given the new bounds as [0,1]X[0,1].
I'm just getting stuck on how to do this without any in built functions.

Example to illustrate the flow:
syms u v
%integration limits
x_min=0;
x_max=1;
y_min=2;
y_max=4;
F_original=@(x,y) x*y;
%variables relations
a_y=2;
b_y=3;
c_y=1;
a_x=1;
b_x=2;
c_x=3;
y= a_y*u+b_y*v+c_y;
x= a_x*u+b_x*v+c_x;
%change of limits (you can do it manually for simple relationships)
u_min=sym2poly(solve(a_y*u+b_y*v+c_y-y_min, a_x*u+b_x*v+c_x-x_min).u);
v_min=sym2poly(solve(a_y*u+b_y*v+c_y-y_min, a_x*u+b_x*v+c_x-x_min).v);
u_max=sym2poly(solve(a_y*u+b_y*v+c_y-y_max, a_x*u+b_x*v+c_x-x_max).u);
v_max=sym2poly(solve(a_y*u+b_y*v+c_y-y_max, a_x*u+b_x*v+c_x-x_max).v);
%change of respect value
dy_du=sym2poly(diff(y,u));
dy_dv=sym2poly(diff(y,v));
dx_du=sym2poly(diff(x,u));
dx_dv=sym2poly(diff(x,v));
sub_F=@(u,v) F_original(a_x*u+b_x*v+c_x,a_y*u+b_y*v+c_y).*dy_du*dy_dv*dx_du*dx_dv;
then preform the integration by the whatever method you prefer.

So
value1 = integral2(F_original,x_min,x_max,y_min,y_max)
value2 = integral2(sub_F,u_min,u_max,v_min,v_max)
should give the same value ?
But the values differ ...
You are right but I guess that the change of limits is the reason as it is not neccessarly that x lower limit occurs with y lower limit to results in u or v lower limits, it is related to the transformation of integration area new limits which may be not any combination between x and y limits; I was just showing the overall flow. For a simpler example with limits directly mapped, it works as required.
syms u v
%integration limits
x_min=0;
x_max=1;
y_min=2;
y_max=4;
F_original=@(x,y) x.*y;
%variables relations
a_y=2;
c_y=1;
a_x=1;
c_x=3;
y= a_y*u+c_y;
x= a_x*v+c_x;
%change of limits
u_min=sym2poly(solve(a_y*u+c_y-y_min, u));
u_max=sym2poly(solve(a_y*u+c_y-y_max, u));
v_min=sym2poly(solve(a_x*v+c_x-x_min,v));
v_max=sym2poly(solve(a_x*v+c_x-x_max,v));
%change of respect value
dy_du=sym2poly(diff(y,u));
dx_dv=sym2poly(diff(x,v));
sub_F=@(u,v) F_original(a_x*v+c_x,a_y*u+c_y).*dy_du*dx_dv;
value1 = integral2(F_original,x_min,x_max,y_min,y_max)
value2 = integral2(sub_F,u_min,u_max,v_min,v_max)
Sorry for inconvenience and many thanks for your comment
