    because,
    X' = AX + g
    A = = {(a11,a12,a13),(a21,a22,a23),(a31,a32,a33)}
    => A = {(2,0,0),(-1,0,-1),(1,1,2)}
    Now,
    (A - lI)X = 0
    => determinant (A-lI) = 0
    => l = 1,1,2 (= eigen values) => non diagonalizable
    => eigen vectors = (0,1,-1) for l =1, (1,-1,1) for l = 2 but for ...

    Solution Summary

    The solution to a system expressed as matrices is found. Initial value problems and ordinary differential equations are solved by using Jordan and Diagonalization.
