    What Are the Eigenlines for the Matrix A = (3 -3; 2 -4)?

    Thanks for that! Couldn't see the wood through the trees. Got it now. K^2+k-6=0 (k-2)(k+3)=0 So k=2 and k=-3 So eventual both equations reduce to x=y/2 Can't believe I missed that.

    What Are the Eigenlines for the Matrix A = (3 -3; 2 -4)?

    [b]1. Find the corresponding Eigenline A= (3 -3 2 -4) Homework Equations A=(a b c d) k2-(a+d)k+(ad-bc)=0 The Attempt at a Solution k2-(3-(-4))k+(3(-4)-(-3)2)=0 k2+k-6=0 (k+2)(k-3) So k=-2 and k=3 Eigenvector for k=3 (3 -3 2 -4)(x y) = 3(x y) (3x -3y 2x -4y)= (3x...
