In Exercises \({\bf{3}}\) and \({\bf{4}}\), use the factorization \(A = PD{P^{ - {\bf{1}}}}\) to compute \({A^k}\) where \(k\) represents an arbitrary positive integer.

4. \(\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - 2}&{12}\\{ - 1}&5\end{array}} \right) = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}3&4\\1&1\end{array}} \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}2&0\\0&1\end{array}} \right)\left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{c}}{ - 1}&4\\1&{ - 3}\end{array}} \right)\)

Let \(B = \left\{ {{{\bf{b}}_1},{{\bf{b}}_2},{{\bf{b}}_3}} \right\}\)be a basis for a vector space \(V\) and\(T:V \to {\mathbb{R}^2}\) be a linear transformation with the property that

\(T\left( {{x_1}{{\bf{b}}_1} + {x_2}{{\bf{b}}_2} + {x_3}{{\bf{b}}_3}} \right) = \left( {\begin{aligned}{2{x_1} - 4{x_2} + 5{x_3}}\\{ - {x_2} + 3{x_3}}\end{aligned}} \right)\)

Find the matrix for \(T\) relative to \(B\) and the standard basis for \({\mathbb{R}^2}\).

(M)The MATLAB command roots\(\left( p \right)\) computes the roots of the polynomial equation \(p\left( t \right) = {\bf{0}}\). Read a MATLAB manual, and then describe the basic idea behind the algorithm for the roots command.

Suppose \(A = PD{P^{ - 1}}\), where \(P\) is \(2 \times 2\) and \(D = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}{l}}2&0\\0&7\end{array}} \right)\)

a. Let \(B = 5I - 3A + {A^2}\). Show that \(B\) is diagonalizable by finding a suitable factorization of \(B\).

b. Given \(p\left( t \right)\) and \(p\left( A \right)\) as in Exercise 5 , show that \(p\left( A \right)\) is diagonalizable.

Exercises 19–23 concern the polynomial \(p\left( t \right) = {a_{\bf{0}}} + {a_{\bf{1}}}t + ... + {a_{n - {\bf{1}}}}{t^{n - {\bf{1}}}} + {t^n}\) and \(n \times n\) matrix \({C_p}\) called the companion matrix of \(p\): \({C_p} = \left( {\begin{aligned}{*{20}{c}}{\bf{0}}&{\bf{1}}&{\bf{0}}&{...}&{\bf{0}}\\{\bf{0}}&{\bf{0}}&{\bf{1}}&{}&{\bf{0}}\\:&{}&{}&{}&:\\{\bf{0}}&{\bf{0}}&{\bf{0}}&{}&{\bf{1}}\\{ - {a_{\bf{0}}}}&{ - {a_{\bf{1}}}}&{ - {a_{\bf{2}}}}&{...}&{ - {a_{n - {\bf{1}}}}}\end{aligned}} \right)\).

19. Write the companion matrix \({C_p}\) for \(p\left( t \right) = {\bf{6}} - {\bf{5}}t + {t^{\bf{2}}}\), and then find the characteristic polynomial of \({C_p}\).
