Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a non-diagonally dominant matrix, describe how you would adjust it to use the Gauss-Jacobi method effectively.
💡 Hint: Review the concept of rearranging rows for dominance.
If you start the Gauss-Jacobi method with the guess x=1, y=1, z=1 for the equations: 10x + 2y + 3z = 37, 4x + 5y + 6z = 88, determine the values after one iteration.
💡 Hint: Apply the method to generate new values for one complete iteration.
