Investigate the values of and such that the system of equations

x + 2y + 3z = 10
x + 2y + z = , may have
(i) Unique solution
(ii) Infinite number of solutions

(i) Unique solution: For unique solution, we must have rank A = rank
A B = 3. The rank (A) will be 3 if ( - 3) 0, since the other
two entries in the last row are zero.
If ( -3) 0 or 3 irrespective of the values of , rank A B
will also be 3. Therefore the system will have unique solution if
3.
10
10
(ii) Infinite solutions: The number of unknown n = 3, we need rank (A)
= rank A B = r < 3. Since first row and second row are non
zero, we have that r = 2.
Therefore rank (A) = rank A B = 2 only when the last row of
A B is completely zero. This is possible if - 3 = 0, -10 = 0.
Therefore the system will have infinite solutions if = 3 and =
10.
(iii) No solution: In this case, we must have rank (A) rank A B ,
by case (i) rank(A) = 3 if 3 and hence if = 3 we obtain rank
(A) = 2. If we impose ( - 10) 0 other than A B will be 3.
Therefore the system has no solution if = 3 and 10.

From the above two tables, it is clear that 12 iterations are required by
Jacobi’s method to achieve the same accuracy as seven Gauss – Seidel
iterations.
Therefore the solutions are x1 = 1, x2 = 2, x3 = 3 and x4 = 0. In both
the methods, we have taken the initial approximations

The normal equations for Y = a + bX + cX2 are
Y = na + b X + C X2

X = 0 Y = 1.06 XY=220.97 X2Y=57.67
The normal equations becomes
5 a + 10 c = 1.06
10 b = 220.97
10 a + 34 c = 57.67
X2=10 X3 = 0
X4 = 34
10
Solving these simultaneous, equations, we get,
a = – 7.73, b = 22.097, c = 3.97
The parabola Y = a + bX + cX2 becomes
Y = – 7.73 + 22.097 X + 3.97 X2
or
y – 39 = – 7.73 + 22.09 (
x -6
x -6 2
) + 3.97(

on simplification we obtain
y = 0.7 – 0.86x + 0.9925 x2

Therefore y is maximum at p = 1 and minimum at p = 0 and p = 2.
The maximum value y at p = 1 (that is., x =1) is
y(1) = 0.25.
6.
Compute y(0.1) and y(0.2) by Runge-Kutta method of fourth order for
the differential equation
dy
xy + y2, y(0) = 1.
dx
Ans:The formulae for the fourth order Runge-Kutta method are
yi+1 = yi + 1 [K1 + 2K2 + 2K3 + K4], where K1, K2, K3, K4 defined above.
6
Here f(x, y) = xy + y2.
x0 = 0, y0 = y(0) = 1 and h = 0.1 .
x1 = x0 + h = 0.1
x2 = x1 + h = 0.2
To find y1 = y (x1) = y(x1) = y (0.1), put i = 0 in R-K method, we get
y1 = y0 + 1 [K1 + 2K2 + 2K3 + K4]
6
10
10
where K1 = hf(x0, y0) = h(x0 y0 + y02 ) = 0.1 (0 + 12) = 0.1
K2 = h f ( x0
K
h
, y0 1 ) = h f(0.05, 1.05) = 0.1 ((0.05)(1.05) + (1.05)2)
2
2
= 0.1155.
K3 = h f ( x0
K
h
, y0 2 ) = h f(0.05, 1.05775)
2
2
=
0.1 ((0.05) (1.5775) + (1.05775)2 ) =
0.1172.
K4 = hf (x0 + h, y0 + K3) = hf(0.1, 1.1172)
= 0.1 ((0.1) (1.1172) + (1.1172)2 ) = 0.1169
we have K1 = 0.1, K2 = 0.1155, K3 = 0.1172, K4 = 0.1169.
Therefore y1 = 1 + 1 [0.1 + 2 (0.1155) + 2 (0.1172) + 0.1169]
6
= 1.1169
Therefore y (0.1) = 1.1169
To find y2 = y (x2) = y(x2) = y (0.2), put i = 1 in R-K method of order
4, we have
y2 = y1 + 1 [K1 + 2K2 + 2K3 + K4], where
6
K1 = h f(x1, y1) = 0.1 f(0.1, 1.1169) = 0.1 (0.1 (1.1169) +(1.1169)2 )=
0.1359
K2 = h f ( x1
K
h
, y1 1 ) = 0.1 f(0.15, 1.1849)
2
2
= 0.1 (0.15 (1.1849) + (1.1849)2 ) = 0.1582
K3 = h f ( x1
K
h
, y1 2 ) = 0.1 f(0.15, 1.196) = 0.1(0.15 (1.196) +
2
2
(1.196)2 )
= 0.1610
K4 = hf (x1 + h, y1 + K3) = 0.1 f(0.2, 1.2779) = 0.1 (0.2 (1.2779)+(1.2779)2
)
= 0.1889.
So K1 = 0.1, K2 = 0.1155, K3 = 0.1172, K4 = 0.1169.
Therefore y2 = 1.1169 + 1 [0.1359 + 2 (0.1582) + 2 (0.1610) + 0.1889)]
6
= 1.2774.
Therefore y (0.2) = 1.2774 .
