Question
Consider the matrix \( A = \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 1 & -2 \\ 0 & 0 & 5 \\ 0 & 0 & -2 \end{bmatrix} \).

This 3x3 matrix is composed of three rows and three columns, with each entry containing a specific integer. The first row is \( [2, 1, -2] \), the second row is \( [0, 0, 5] \), and the third row is \( [0, 0, -2] \). The matrix can be used in various mathematical operations such as matrix addition, multiplication, determinant calculation, and finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors.

The image contains the following text:

"an eigenvector for the middle eigenvalue = \(\begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}\)"

This represents an eigenvector corresponding to what is described as the "middle eigenvalue." The eigenvector is written as a column matrix, with the components 1 and 0.
