Question 2
Eigen values and eigen vectors are fundamental tools in linear algebra with wide [Link]
how eigen values and eigen vectors are applied in real-world problems in your field of [Link] dis-
cussion should focus on the applications using real-world examples to illustrate each case, and clearly
explain why eigen values and eigen vectors are important in those [Link] may use diagrams or
simple mathematical illustrations where appropriate.
Should be done in groups of not more than fifteen individuals
