Hello! 

In an assigment I have been asked to use the Eigenvectors command to find the eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a particular matrix. 

As highlighted in the following image, my questions are:

1. What is the meaning of the suffix "+0.I"? Does it mean that there are further decimal digits which are not displayed?

2. How do the first and third eigenvalues, which are equal, result in different eigenvectors? As per my understanding, equal eigenvalues should have equal corresponding eigenvectors. Please help.
