In consequence, we obtain the subsequent matrix form for the system of equations:

Ay = Bx + u,
where the vectors of unknowns y, x and the vector of disturbance terms u read as follows:

In order to determine the eigenvalues of the system of equations (62), it has to be rearranged in the
following form:

y = Mx + v,                                                                   (63)

where M := A-1B and v := A- 1u. Moreover, A-1 denotes the inverse of A, which exists because
det(
A) = 1 = 0.

The matrices A-1 and M and the vector v read as follows:
