031 Review Part 3, Problem 1
(a) Is the matrix Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A= \begin{bmatrix} 3 & 1 \\ 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix}} diagonalizable? If so, explain why and diagonalize it. If not, explain why not.
(b) Is the matrix Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle A= \begin{bmatrix} 2 & 0 & -2 \\ 1 & 3 & 2 \\ 0 & 0 & 3 \end{bmatrix}} diagonalizable? If so, explain why and diagonalize it. If not, explain why not.
