ANSWER:
Step 1 of 4
Let be the given matrix. We use the MATLAB to produce the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of this matrix . The commands which are used in the following solution are eig and nulbasis. The command computes the three eigenvalues of and stores them in a vector ev. be the given matrix. We use the MATLAB to produce the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of this matrix . The commands which are used in the following solution are eig and nulbasis. The command computes the three eigenvalues of and stores them in a vector ev.
The given matrix is is
So from MATLAB we have that
