Question
Let \( A \) be an arbitrary \( n \times n \) matrix. Show that if \( \lambda_1 \) and \( \lambda_2 \) are two eigenvalues with \( \lambda_1 \neq \lambda_2 \) and eigenvectors \( \mathbf{v}_1 \) and \( \mathbf{v}_2 \), respectively, then \( \mathbf{v}_1 \) and \( \mathbf{v}_2 \) are linearly independent.
