Answer

$\lambda = 0, 1, 3$ with multiplicities of 1, 2, 2, respectively

Work Step by Step

(1) The eigenvalues can be found by taking the determinant of $A-\lambda I$ and set the derivative equal to zero. $det(A-\lambda I) = (3-\lambda)(1-\lambda)\lambda(1-\lambda)(3-\lambda)=0$ (2) Solve for $\lambda$ (3) $\lambda = 0, 1, 3$ where the eigenvalues of 1 and 3 have multiplicities of two.
