Answer:

38.8713

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the a 3×3 matrix

The characteristic equation of the matrix is given by [tex]\lambda ^3-39\lambda ^2+5\lambda =0[/tex]

This is the property of the characteristic equation that the root of the the characteristic equation are the eigen value of the matrix

The roots of the equation  [tex]\lambda ^3-39\lambda ^2+5\lambda =0[/tex] are [tex]\lambda =38.8713\ \lambda =0\ \lambda =0.12863[/tex]

We have to find the larger non zero eigen value

So the larger non zero eigen value will be 38.8713
