Short Answer

Solve the system dxdt=[-1-22-1]xwithx(0)=[1-1] . Give the solution in real form. Sketch the solution.

The solution of the system isx(t)=et[cos(2t)+sin(2t)sin(2t)cos(2t)] and the graph is:

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Find the Eigen values of the matrix

Consider the equation dxdt=[1221]xwith the initial valuex(0)=[11] .

Compare the equationsdxdt=[1221]x and dxdt=Axas follows.

A=[1221]

Assume λis an Eigen value of the matrix [1221] implies |AλI|=0.

Substitute the values[1221] for Aand[1001] forI in the equation|AλI|=0 as follows.

|AλI|=0|[1221]λ[1001]|=0

Simplify the equation|[1221]λ[1001]|=0 as follows.

|[1221]λ[1001]|=0|[1221][λ00λ]|=0|[1λ221λ]|=0(1λ)(1λ)+4=0

Further, simplify the equation as follows.

(1λ)(1λ)+4=01+2λ+λ2+4=0λ2+2λ+5=0

Further, simplify the equation as follows.

λ=b±b24ac2aλ=(2)±(2)24(1)(5)2(1)λ=2±4202λ=2±4i2

Therefore, the Eigen values of Aare λ=1±i2.

Step 2: Determine the Eigen vector corresponding to the Eigen value λ=-1+i2 

Substitute the values1+i2 forλ in the equation |[1λ221λ]|=0as follows.

|[1λ221λ]|=0|[1(1+2i)221(1+2i)]|=0|[1+12i221+12i]|=0|[2i222i]|=0

AsE1+2i=ker[2i222i]=span[i1] , the values v+iwis defined as follows.

v+iw=[01]+i[10]

Therefore, the value ofS is .S=[1001]

Step 3: Determine the solution for  dx→dt=[-1-22-1]x→

The inverse of the matrixS=[1001] is defined as follows.

S1=[1001]

Asx(t)=eptS[cos(qt)sin(qt)sin(qt)cos(qt)]S1x0 , Substitute the value[1001] forS , [1001]forS1 , [11]for x0, 1for pand 2 for q in the equationx(t)=eptS[cos(qt)sin(qt)sin(qt)cos(qt)]S1x0 as follows.

x(t)=eptS[cos(qt)sin(qt)sin(qt)cos(qt)]S1x0x(t)=et[1001][cos(2t)sin(2t)sin(2t)cos(2t)][1001][11]x(t)=et[cos(2t)+sin(2t)sin(2t)cos(2t)]

Therefore, the solution of the system is x(t)=et[cos(2t)+sin(2t)sin(2t)cos(2t)].

Step 4: Sketch the solution

As λ1,2=1±2iand1<0 , draw the graph of the solutionx(t)=et[cos(2t)+sin(2t)sin(2t)cos(2t)] as follows.

Hence the solution of the system dxdt=[1221]xwith the initial valuex(0)=[11] is x(t)=et[cos(2t)+sin(2t)sin(2t)cos(2t)]and the graph of the solution is a spirals in counterclockwise direction toward the origin.
