![**Title: Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors Calculation for Matrices**
**Objective:**
Compute the eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors of the following matrices:
\[
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & -12 \\
2 & 1
\end{bmatrix}
\]
and
\[
\begin{bmatrix}
1 & -3 \\
4 & 2
\end{bmatrix}
\]
**Instructions:**
1. Begin with the definition of eigenvalues and eigenvectors.
2. Use the characteristic equation \(\det(A - \lambda I) = 0\) to find eigenvalues (\(\lambda\)).
3. Substitute each eigenvalue back into the equation \((A - \lambda I)x = 0\) to find the corresponding eigenvectors.
4. Show all steps clearly, so readers can follow the logic and calculations.
**Applications:**
Understanding eigenvalues and eigenvectors is crucial in various applications such as stability analysis, vibration analysis, and quantum mechanics.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F3ef06bb3-2d9b-4f27-bb3b-835b443ab608%2F485a116f-1c67-4669-8cb2-b2a526d32616%2Ffq82r1k_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
