CE 2020 Exam #3 Review Questions and
answers, rated A+


Briefly explain what the graphical method for solving a system of two algebraic linear equations is.

Provide a diagram representing the two equations


Plot the two equations with cartesian coordinates and axis labeled x1 and x2. Equations have variables of

x1 and x2 (will plot straight lines. Should draw 3 graphs, 1 with no solution, one with infinite solutions,

one that is ill-conditioned)


In the context of solving a system of linear algebraic equations, what does the system ill-conditioned

systemmeans?


Where the slopes of two equations are so close that it is hard to pinpoint the exact solution


-What does the MATLAB built


det() function in function det() do? What is the argument for the function?


Finds the determinant of a matrix


You should know that the determinant of the matrix of coefficients for a linear system of equations will

be _______ if the system has no solution.


Zero


You should know that the determinant of the matrix of coefficients for a linear system of equations will

be _____ if the system has an infinite number of solutions (i.e., it is singular).

, Zero


-You should know that the determinant of the matrix of coefficients for a linear system of equations will

be _________ if the system is ill conditioned.


Close to zero


You should know that the Cramer's rule for solving a system of linear equations is useful (and so it is of

practical significance) only when the number of equations in the system is small (e.g., when the system is

formed by two or three equations, and therefore there are two or three unknowns).


Cramer's rule is useful as long as matrix is 2x2 or 3x3 but has difficulty with large systems


You should know that the Cramer's rule for solving a system of linear equations computes the different

unknowns by evaluating a ratio of two determinants. The denominator in this ratio is the determinant of

the matrix of coefficients. The numerator in this ratio is the determinant of the matrix of coefficients

with the column of coefficients corresponding to the unknown replaced by the coefficients in the vector

of constants. You are expected to know how to apply Cramer's rule if given a simple problem involving,

for example, a system of two linear equations with two unknowns.

You are expected to know what the method of Elimination of Unknowns for solving a system of algebraic

linear equations is. You are also expected to be able to illustrate the application of the method (applying

the correct/formal procedure for eliminating unknowns as done in the textbook) if given a small system

of linear equations (e.g., a system consisting of two equations and two unknowns).


Multiply the equations by constants so that one of the unknowns will be eliminated when the equations

are combined(illustration sent in text)
