Answer:

The x intercept is (-3,0)

The y intercept is (0,-6/5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the x intercept, set y =0 and solve for x

2x+5y=-6

2x+0 = -6

Divide by 2

2x/2 = -6/2

x = -3

The x intercept is (-3,0)

To find the y intercept, set x =0 and solve for y

2x+5y=-6

0+5y = -6

Divide by 5

5y/5 = -6/5

y = -6/5

The y intercept is (0,-6/5)

How to do surface area

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the length and width, or c and b to find their area. Multiply this measurement by two to account for both sides. Add the three separate measurements together. Because surface area is the total area of all of the faces of an object, the final step is to add all of the individually calculated areas together.

Yuri [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this question is lacking the matrix A, we will solve the question with the matrix

$\left[\begin{matrix}4 & -2 \\ 1 & 1 \end{matrix}\right]$

so we can illustrate how to solve the problem step by step.

a) The characteristic polynomial is defined by the equation $det(A-\lambdaI)=0$ where I is the identity matrix of appropiate size and lambda is a variable to be solved. In our case,

$\left|\left[\begin{matrix}4-\lamda & -2 \\ 1 & 1-\lambda \end{matrix}\right]\right|= 0 = (4-\lambda)(1-\lambda)+2 = \lambda^2-5\lambda+4+2 = \lambda^2-5\lambda+6$

So the characteristic polynomial is $\lambda^2-5\lambda+6=0$ .

b) The eigenvalues of the matrix are the roots of the characteristic polynomial. Note that

$\lambda^2-5\lambda+6=(\lambda-3)(\lambda-2) =0$

So $\lambda=3, \lambda=2$

c) To find the bases of each eigenspace, we replace the value of lambda and solve the homogeneus system(equalized to zero) of the resultant matrix. We will illustrate the process with one eigen value and the other one is left as an exercise.

If $\lambda=3$ we get the following matrix

$\left[\begin{matrix}1 & -2 \\ 1 & -2 \end{matrix}\right]$ .

Since both rows are equal, we have the equation

$x-2y=0$ . Thus x=2y. In this case, we get to choose y freely, so let's take y=1. Then x=2. So, the eigenvector that is a base for the eigenspace associated to the eigenvalue 3 is the vector (2,1)

For the case $\lambda=2$ , using the same process, we get the vector (1,1).

d) By definition, to diagonalize a matrix A is to find a diagonal matrix D and a matrix P such that $A=PDP^{-1}$ . We can construct matrix D and P by choosing the eigenvalues as the diagonal of matrix D. So, if we pick the eigen value 3 in the first column of D, we must put the correspondent eigenvector (2,1) in the first column of P. In this case, the matrices that we get are

$P=\left[\begin{matrix}2&1 \\ 1 & 1 \end{matrix}\right], D=\left[\begin{matrix}3&0 \\ 0 & 2 \end{matrix}\right]$

This matrices are not unique, since they depend on the order in which we arrange the eigenvalues in the matrix D. Another pair or matrices that diagonalize A is

$P=\left[\begin{matrix}1&2 \\ 1 & 1 \end{matrix}\right], D=\left[\begin{matrix}2&0 \\ 0 & 3 \end{matrix}\right]$

which is obtained by interchanging the eigenvalues on the diagonal and their respective eigenvectors
