• To find solutions of the differential equation , we must
find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of A from the associated
algebraic system.
• The eigenvalues are roots of the nth degree polynomial

This is called a
fundamental matrix.

This can be written as:
For an initial value problem with the initial condition
It has multiplicity 2.
If an eigenvalue has multiplicity m, there may or may not be m linearly
independent eigenvector.
Let
then
can be included in the first eigenvector evaluated.
7.9 Nonhomogeneous Linear Systems
Consider the nonhomogeneous system
We then find:
