Critical Points and Linearization

The video tutorial explains how to find critical points and linearize a given system of equations. It starts by identifying the critical points where both functions in the system are zero. The process involves solving the equations to find these points. The tutorial then moves on to linearization, explaining how to change variables and determine the Jacobian matrix. The linearization is evaluated at the critical points, and the results are graphically represented to verify the accuracy of the approximations. The video concludes with a graphical analysis of the vector field and its linearizations.
