Please focus on part B. 

**Problem 4: Solving Matrix Differential Equations**

**Instructions:**
Solve the following matrix differential equations. Additionally, comment on the behavior of the solution(s) as \( t \to \infty \).

**Problem (a):**

Given the system of differential equations:

\[
\frac{dx}{dt} = 
\begin{bmatrix}
3 & 2 & 4 \\
2 & 0 & 2 \\
4 & 2 & 3
\end{bmatrix} 
x
\]

**Problem (b):**

Given the system of differential equations with initial condition:

\[
\frac{dx}{dt} = 
\begin{bmatrix}
5 & -1 \\
3 & 1
\end{bmatrix} 
x, \quad x(0) = 
\begin{bmatrix}
2 \\
-1
\end{bmatrix}
\]

**Analysis and Expected Outcomes:**

- **Problem (a):** Solve the homogeneous differential equation involving a \( 3 \times 3 \) matrix. After finding the solution, analyze the eigenvalues of the matrix to understand the behavior of the system as time \( t \) approaches infinity. Discuss stability, oscillations, or divergence based on eigenvalues.

- **Problem (b):** Solve the homogeneous differential equation involving a \( 2 \times 2 \) matrix with a specified initial condition. Determine the closed-form solution and analyze the long-term behavior by examining the eigenvalues. Consider stable nodes, spirals, or other behaviors for \( t \to \infty \).

**Important Concepts:**

1. **Eigenvalues and Eigenvectors:** Critical for solving systems of linear differential equations. They help identify the nature of the system over time.
2. **Stability Analysis:** Depending on eigenvalues, check if solutions grow unbounded, oscillate, or converge to a stable point.
3. **Initial Conditions:** Affect the particular solution of the differential equations but not the nature of the system's stability.

This exercise develops skills in solving linear systems in matrix form and understanding their long-term behavior.
