\begin{exerciseStatement}

Explain how to find the eigenvalues of the matrix \( \left[\begin{array}{cc}
9 & 2 \\
-22 & -6
\end{array}\right] \).

\end{exerciseStatement}
\begin{exerciseAnswer}

The characteristic polynomial of \( \left[\begin{array}{cc}
9 & 2 \\
-22 & -6
\end{array}\right] \) is \( \lambda^{2} - 3 \lambda - 10 \).



The eigenvalues of \( \left[\begin{array}{cc}
9 & 2 \\
-22 & -6
\end{array}\right] \) are \( 5 \) and \( -2 \).
