Question
For the matrix \( A \), find (if possible) a nonsingular matrix \( P \) such that \( P^{-1}AP \) is diagonal. (If not possible, enter IMPOSSIBLE.)

\[ A = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & \frac{1}{2} \\ -\frac{3}{2} & -1 \end{bmatrix} \]

\[ P = \begin{bmatrix} \square & \square \\ \square & \square \end{bmatrix} \]

Verify that \( P^{-1}AP \) is a diagonal matrix with the eigenvalues on the main diagonal.

\[ P^{-1}AP = \begin{bmatrix} \square & \square \\ \square & \square \end{bmatrix} \]
