All the tools & learning materials you need for study success - in one app.
Get started for freeLet \(A = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{.4}&{ - .3}\\{.4}&{1.2}\end{aligned}} \right)\). Explain why \({A^k}\) approaches \(\left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{ - .5}&{ - .75}\\1&{1.5}\end{aligned}} \right)\) as \(k \to \infty \).
Use Exercise 12 to find the eigenvalues of the matrices in Exercises 13 and 14.
13. \(A = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}3&{ - 2}&8\\0&5&{ - 2}\\0&{ - 4}&3\end{array}} \right)\)
For the matrices A in Exercises 1 through 12, find closed formulas for , where t is an arbitrary positive integer. Follow the strategy outlined in Theorem 7.4.2 and illustrated in Example 2. In Exercises 9 though 12, feel free to use technology.
Use mathematical induction to show that if \(\lambda \) is an eigenvalue of an \(n \times n\) matrix \(A\), with a corresponding eigenvector, then, for each positive integer \(m\), \({\lambda ^m}\)is an eigenvalue of \({A^m}\), with \({\rm{x}}\) a corresponding eigenvector.
Question: Find the characteristic polynomial and the eigenvalues of the matrices in Exercises 1-8.
4. \(\left[ {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}5&-3\\-4&3\end{array}} \right]\)
