Math 225 Final Exam solved
If the columns of A are linearly dependent - CORRECT ANSWER Then the matrix is not
invertible and an eigenvalue is 0

Note that A−1 exists. In order for λ−1 to be an eigenvalue of A−1, there must exist a
nonzero x such that Upper A Superscript negative 1 Baseline Bold x equals lambda
Superscript negative 1 Baseline Bold x . A−1x=λ−1x. Suppose a nonzero x satisfies
Ax=λx. What is the first operation that should be performed on Ax=λx so that an
equation similar to the one in the previous step can be obtained? - CORRECT
ANSWER Left-multiply both sides of Ax=λx by A−1.

Show that if A2 is the zero matrix, then the only eigenvalue of A is 0. - CORRECT
ANSWER If Ax=λx for some x≠0, then 0x=A2x=A(Ax)=A(λx)=λAx=λ2x=0. Since x is
nonzero, λ must be zero. Thus, each eigenvalue of A is zero.

Finding the characteristic polynomial of a 3 x 3 matrix - CORRECT ANSWER Add the
first two columns to the right side of the matrix and then add the down diagonals and
subtract the up diagonals

In a simplified n x n matrix the Eigenvalues are - CORRECT ANSWER The values of
the main diagonal

Use a property of determinants to show that A and AT have the same characteristic
polynomial - CORRECT ANSWER Start with detAT−λI)=detAT−λI)=det(A−λI)T. Then
use the formula det AT=det A.

The determinant of A is the product of the diagonal entries in A. Select the correct
choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your choice. -
CORRECT ANSWER The statement is false because the determinant of the
2×2 matrix A= [ 1 1 (1 1 below) ] is not equal to the product of the entries on the main
diagonal of A.

An elementary row operation on A does not change the determinant. Choose the
correct answer below. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is false because scaling a
row also scales the determinant by the same scalar factor.

(det A)(det B)=detAB. Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the
answer box to complete your choice. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is true
because it is the Multiplicative Property of determinants.

If λ+5 is a factor of the characteristic polynomial of A, then 5 is an eigenvalue of A.
Select the correct choice below and, if necessary, fill in the answer box to complete your
choice. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is false because in order for 5 to be an
eigenvalue of A, the characteristic polynomial would need to have a factor of λ−5.

Determine whether the statement "If A is 3×3, with columns a1, a2, a3, then det A
equals the volume of the parallelepiped determined by a1, a2, a3" is true or false.
Choose the correct answer below. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is false
because det A equals the volume of the parallelepiped determined by a1, a2, a3. It is
possible that det A≠det A.

Determine whether the statement "det AT=(−1)det A"is true or false. Choose the correct
answer below. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is false because det AT=det A for
any n×n matrix A.

Determine whether the statement "The multiplicity of a root r of the characteristic
equation of A is called the algebraic multiplicity of r as an eigenvalue of A" is true or
false. Choose the correct answer below. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is true
because it is the definition of the algebraic multiplicity of an eigenvalue of A.

Determine whether the statement "A row replacement operation on A does not change
the eigenvalues" is true or false. Choose the correct answer below. - CORRECT
ANSWER The statement is false because row operations on a matrix usually change its
eigenvalues.

A matrix A is diagonalizable if A has n eigenvectors. - CORRECT ANSWER The
statement is false. A diagonalizable matrix must have n linearly independent
eigenvectors.

If A is diagonalizable, then A has n distinct eigenvalues - CORRECT ANSWER The
statement is false. A diagonalizable matrix can have fewer than n eigenvalues and still
have n linearly independent eigenvectors.

If AP=PD, with D diagonal, then the nonzero columns of P must be eigenvectors of A. -
CORRECT ANSWER The statement is true. Let v be a nonzero column in P and let λ
be the corresponding diagonal element in D. Then AP=PD implies that Av=λv, which
means that v is an eigenvector of A.

If A is invertible, then A is diagonalizable. - CORRECT ANSWER The statement is
false. An invertible matrix may have fewer than n linearly independent eigenvectors,
making it not diagonalizable.

A is a 3×3 matrix with two eigenvalues. Each eigenspace is one-dimensional. Is A
diagonalizable? Why? - CORRECT ANSWER No. The sum of the dimensions of the
eigenspaces equals 2 and the matrix has 3 columns. The sum of the dimensions of the
eigenspace and the number of columns must be equal.

How to calculate the distance between two vectors - CORRECT ANSWER (u-v) then
find the magnitude
