  • The SVD factors the matrix X into three components: U, Σ, and V^T.
  • U is a 3×3 orthogonal matrix containing the left singular vectors.
  • Σ is a 3×2 diagonal matrix containing the singular values (4.2426 and a very small value treated as 0).
  • V^T is a 2×2 orthogonal matrix containing the right singular vectors.
  • For the reduced SVD, only the largest singular value (4.2426) and its corresponding vectors in U and V are kept.
  • This provides a rank-1 approximation to the original matrix X.
