Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Given an overdetermined system represented as: 3x + 4y + z = 10, 5x + 6y - 2z = 20, 2x + y + 10z = 0, derive the normal equations and solve using least squares.

💡 Hint: Break it down into establishing A and b matrices first.

Challenge 2 Hard

In practical applications, how can you handle noise in data when using least squares? Discuss methods to improve results.

💡 Hint: Think about how to deal with outlier data points and adjust your calculations.
