Hello, let's note A the matrix, we need to find \lambda such that A\lambda=\lambda I, where I is the identity matrix, so the determinant is 0, giving us the characteristic equation as

\left|\begin{array}{cc}1-\lambda&3\\-3&1-\lambda\end{array}\right|\\\\=(1-\lambda)^2+9\\\\=\lambda^2-2\lambda+10\\\\=0

We just need to solve this equation using the discriminant.

\Delta=b^2-4ac=2^2-40=-36=(6i)^2

And then the eigenvalues are.

\lambda_1=\dfrac{2-6i}{2}=\boxed{1-3i}\\\\\lambda_2=\boxed{1+3i}

To find the basis, we have to solve the system of equations.

A\lambda_1-\lambda_1 I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3i&3\\-3&3i\end{array}\right] \\\\=3\left[\begin{array}{cc}i&1\\-1&i\end{array}\right] \\\\\text{For a vector (a,b), we need to find a and b such that.}\\\\\begin{cases}ai+b=0\\-a+bi=0\end{cases}\\\\\text{(1,-i) is a base of this space, as i-i=0 and -1-}i^2\text{=-1+1=0.}

A\lambda_2-\lambda_2 I=\left[\begin{array}{cc}-3i&3\\-3&-3i\end{array}\right] \\\\=3\left[\begin{array}{cc}-i&1\\-1&-i\end{array}\right]\\\\\text{For a vector (a,b), we need to find a and b such that.}\\\\\begin{cases}-ai+b=0\\-a-bi=0\end{cases}\\\\\text{(1,i) is a base of this space as -i+i=0 and -1-i*i=0.}

Thank you

vlada-n [284]

The discriminant of the function is 120, and the function has 2 different x-intercepts

<h3>How to determine the discriminant?</h3>

The function is given as:

f(x) = -7x^2 + 8x + 2

The discriminant (d) is calculated using:

D =b^2 - 4ac

So, we have:

D = 8^2 - 4 * (-7) * 2

Evaluate

D = 120

Because the value of D is greater than 0, then the function has 2 different x-intercepts

Answer:

67°F

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is another way to say average.

To find the average: you have to add up all of the temperatures, then divide by how many numbers (in this case, time slots) are there.

58°F + 60°F + 61°F + 67°F + 69°F + 73°F + 74°F + 74°F = 536°F

536°F ÷ 8 (total number of time slots) = 67°F

When f(x)=4, what is th<br>0​
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

F(x)=4 means you plug in the 4 into where the variable is.

Step-by-step explanation:

Not really sure what your question meant but If you trying to find a problem with f(x)=4, then you plug in 4 into the variable of x.
