The eigenvalues and corresponding eigenvectors of the matrix \( A = \begin{pmatrix} 8 & -6 & 2 \\ -6 & 7 & -4 \\ 2 & -4 & 3 \end{pmatrix} \) are as follows:

### Eigenvalues:
1. \( \lambda_1 = 15 \)
2. \( \lambda_2 = 3 \)
3. \( \lambda_3 \approx 0 \) (very close to zero)

### Eigenvectors (corresponding to each eigenvalue):
1. For \( \lambda_1 = 15 \), the eigenvector is:
   \[
   v_1 = \begin{pmatrix} -\frac{2}{3} \\ \frac{2}{3} \\ -\frac{1}{3} \end{pmatrix}
   \]
2. For \( \lambda_2 = 3 \), the eigenvector is:
   \[
   v_2 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{2}{3} \\ \frac{1}{3} \\ -\frac{2}{3} \end{pmatrix}
   \]
3. For \( \lambda_3 \approx 0 \), the eigenvector is:
   \[
   v_3 = \begin{pmatrix} \frac{1}{3} \\ \frac{2}{3} \\ \frac{2}{3} \end{pmatrix}
   \]
