OK, thank you. So... to clarify, I can essentially ignore the I and just work with the I's coefficient as a constant, correct?

Homework Statement Find the general solution of (D^4 - I)^2(D^2 - 4D + 13I)^2(y) = 0 2. The attempt at a solution My issue with this problem is that I have no clue as to what the I's mean. I have become familiar with D being used notationally with differential equations, but the...

Homework Statement The problem states: Let A_1 = [-1 1] , A_2 = [1 3] ...[0 1]...[-1 0] A_3 = [1 0] , A_4 = [0 -1] ...[1 2]...[2 3] Show that {A_1, A_2, A_3, A_4} is a basis for M_2 R. The attempt at a solution I'm very confused about this problem. I understand that to...
