Question 5:

eigenvalues =

1. 40.5220
2. 14.4090
3. 2.5690

frequencies =

1. 6.3657
2. 3.7959
3. 1.6028

Question 6:

| # of segments | largest | smallest | # of eigenvalues |

| ------------- | ------- | -------- | ---------------- |

| -------5----- | 3.6180 | 0.3820 | -------4-------- |

| -------6----- |3.7321 | 0.2679 | -------5-------- |

| ------10----- |3.9021 | 0.0979 | ------ 9-------- |

when delta x approaches the number of segments is apporaching infinity and therefore the number of eigenvalues is approaching infinity
