Chapter 9 Homework Set Solutions (Linear Algebraic Eqns and Matrices)
Module 3: SLOs #3 [Numerical Linear Algebra]
Due Date:12/03/19 (The due date will be announced in class.)

Instructions: On paper of your choice, print your name neatly. Be sure sure and include
course name, and time (section). If you forget to write your name, or if I can’t read your
writing, you can lose up to 100 points. Answer all the questions that you can. Circle
your final answers.
All computational problems can be checked with the help of Matlab. Because you have
access to Matlab, the computational problems will only be graded based on completeness.
These problems are graded as right or wrong. It is the student’s responsibility to use
Matlab to check your answers and ask for help if you get stuck. There is no partial
credit on this homework set. Most of these problems are college-algebra level problems.
This homework set is mostly to dust the cobwebs out of your memory of basic matrix
properties.
Chapter 9: Solving Linear Systems with Gaussian Elimination

Problem 1. (Conditions for uniqueness)


Given the linear system

E1 : 2x1 − 6α x2 = 3
E2 : 6α x1 − 2x2 = 3

For which value(s) of α will the system have no solutions.


(a) α = −1/3 (b) α = 1/3
(c) α = ±1/3 (d) α =ƒ ±1/3
(e) None of these

Problem 2. Consider the system

x + 2y = 1 ,
x + 3y = 2 ,

whose solution set is x = −1 and y = 1. Reduce this system to row echelon form using
fundamental row operations (e.g., multiplying a row by a constant, a row swap, or by
subtracting one equation from another). Show by direct substitution that x = −1 and
y = 1 remains a solution of the equation. Do not use back-substitution to solve the
system, we already know the answer! The point here is to demonstrate that elementary
row operations do not change the solution.

Problem 3. Express the following system of equations in the form Ax = b, then using
gaussian elimination on the augmented matrix of the form: [A b], | row-reduce the aug-
mented matrix into row echelon form. Use this form to determine if the system has a
unique solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. If it has a unique solution, find
it!

x − y + 3z = 4
x + 2y − 2z = 10
3x − y + 5z = 14
Problem 4. Express the following system of equations in the form Ax = b, then using
gaussian elimination on the augmented matrix of the form: [A b], | row-reduce the aug-
mented matrix into row echelon form. Use this form to determine if the system has a
unique solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. If it has a unique solution, find
it!

x − 3y + 2z = 12
2x − 5y + 5z = 14
x − 2y + 3z = 20
Problem 5. Express the following system of equations in the form Ax = b, then using
gaussian elimination on the augmented matrix of the form: [A b], | row-reduce the aug-
mented matrix into row echelon form. Use this form to determine if the system has a
unique solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions. If it has a unique solution, find
it!

−3x − 5y + 36z = 10
−x + 7z = 5
x + y − 10z = −4

Problem 6. Use Cramer’s rule to solve the system of equations below for x1, x2, x3.

−3x2 + 7x3 = 4
x1 + 2x2 − x3 = 0
5x1 − 2x2 =3

Problem 7. Use Gaussian elimination with partial pivoting to solve the system of equa-
tions below for x1, x2, x3. Be sure and label all of your steps, including where you pivot.

−3x2 + 7x3 = 4
x1 + 2x2 − x3 = 0
5x1 − 2x2 =3
Problem 8. A peristaltic pump delivers a unit flow (Q1 = 1) of a highly viscous fluid.
The network is depicted in the figure below.

Every pipe section has the same length and diameter. The mass and mechanical energy
balance can be simplified to obtain the flows in every pipe. Use Matlab to solve the
following system of equations to obtain the flow in every stream. You will need to write
the equations in matrix form: Ax = b for the appropriate column vectors x and b.

Q1 = Q 2 + Q3 (mass flow rate at node 1)


Q3 = Q 4 + Q5 (mass flow rate at node 2)
Q5 = Q 6 + Q7 (mass flow rate at node 2)
Q3 + 2Q4 − 2Q2 = 0
Q5 + 2Q6 − 2Q4 = 0
3Q7 − 2Q6 = 0
