Math 205 Exam 02: Matrix Equations, Characteristic Polynomials, and Eigenvectors, Exams of Linear Algebra

The math problems and solutions for exam 02 of math 205, focusing on matrix equations, characteristic polynomials, and eigenvectors. Students are required to find the matrix equation involving x, d, and c for a given consumption matrix c, find the final demand vector d, determine the number of units of z's product required for producing one unit of d's product, and find the consumption of sector z from sector d. Additionally, students need to find the characteristic polynomial and eigenvalues of a given matrix a, and determine if certain matrices are row equivalent to a. Lastly, students are asked to define a basis and the dimension of a subspace h.

Suppose x, the vector which represents the total number of goods actually produced by the three sectors D, W and Z in

supplying the final demands of an open sector is x =

1A) Let d be the final demand vector of the open sector. What is the matrix equation involving x, d and C?

1B) Explicitly find d for the vector x given above.

1C) Each unit produced by D requires how many units of Z’s product?

  1. Let A =

2A) Find the characteristic polynomial of A. Show all your work. Be smart and take advantage of the many zeros in this matrix.

2B) Find the eigenvalues of A, and their multiplicities.

  1. Suppose the determinant of some 4x4 matrix M is 3. Next to each of the following matrices, write its determinant.

M 5 5 M M + 2M + 7M −M

M −^1 M T^ (M −^1 )T^ ((5M )−^1 )T

  1. Suppose that A =

p 3 5 − 7 x 0 4 0 1

For each matrix below, determine if that matrix is row equivalent to A. If so, find elementary matrices that represent the row operations done to A that turn it into the given matrix. List your matrices in the order you need to multiply them by in order for their product to turn A into the given matrix.

5a) A 1 =

3 p 9 15 1 x 2 4 0 1

5b) A 2 =

− 7 x 0 5 p 15 25 1 0 1 / 4

5c) Now, suppose that det(A)=24. What are the determinants of A 1 and A 2?

det(A 1 ) = det(A 2 ) =

  1. Let H be a subspace of Rk^ for some k.

6a) What does it mean to say (ie, give the definition) that a set S = {s 1 , s 2 ,... , sp} of vectors in H is a basis of H?

6b. What is the dimension of H? (again, give the definition).

  1. Let K =

 and let^ s^ =

. Label the columns of^ K^ as^ k^1 ,^ k^2 ,^ k^3 , and^ k^4.

You do not need to check these three facts: (1) The vector s is in Col(K). (2) The set B = {k 1 , k 2 } is a basis for Col(K). (3) The set D = {k 3 , k 4 } is a basis for Col(K).
