Transcribed Image Text:Exercise: Let A be an invertible n x n matrix. Suppose that u ER" is an
eigenvector of A with corresponding eigenvalue λ = 2 and v ER" is an
eigenvector of A with corresponding eigenvalue = -7. Fill in the following
blanks. (Enteras a/b, where applicable. Work out any powers before inputting
your answer.)
1. Au =

Example:
Suppose that A is an invertible n x n matrix and that x ER" is an eigenvector of
A with corresponding eigenvalue λ = -3.
Since x is an eigenvector of A with corresponding eigenvalue λ = -3 we have that
x = 0 and Ax =
X.
(a) Show that x is also an eigenvector of B = 2A²-6A-¹ + 51 and find the
corresponding eigenvalue (of B).

(a) Show that x is also an eigenvector of B = 2A²-6A-¹ + 51 and find the
corresponding eigenvalue (of B).
Bx (2A²6A-¹ +51)x

= 18x + 2x + 5x
Therefore, the nonzero vector x is an eigenvector of B with corresponding
eigenvalue λ =
(b) Verify (to yourself) that x is also an eigenvector of
C = -81 + 18A-2 + A³ - 4A and find the corresponding eigenvalue (of C).
The vector x is an eigenvector of C with corresponding eigenvalue λ =
