Week 1 Try me Exercises Solution All solutions are here but I still haven’t carefully proof read it. So there may be some silly typos. Contact email: [email protected] Question 1: Consider the system of linear equations
x y 2 x y 2 Determine the value(s) of
such the system has:
1) infinitely many solutions; 2) exactly one solution; 3) no solution. Solution: The augmented matrix is
1 2 1 2 Which reduces to (performing row operation)
2 1 2 R1 R2 1 2 R1 R2 R2 1 2 1 2 1 2 0 1 2 2 Solve 2 1 0 and 2 2 0 2 2 0 2 1 0 ( 1)( 1) 0 2 2 1 1, 1 1) For the system to have infinitely many solutions if a) and b) satisfy: a) 2 1 0 b) 2 2 0 1 Week 1 Try me Exercises Solution

Thus, from the above calculation 1 . 2) For the system to have exactly one solution if a) satisfy: a) 2 1 0 Thus, from the above calculation 1 and 1 . 3) For the system to have no solution if a) and b) satisfy: a) 2 1 0 b) 2 2 0 Thus, from the above calculation 1 . Question 2: Give the solution set of 4 x 5 y 7 z 3 in parametric form Solution:
3 4 5 Solving foe 𝑧, we get z x y. Thus one parametric form could be 7 7 7
3 4 5 x s , y t and z s t , where s and t are real numbers. 7 7 7 (Note: the solution is not unique.)
Question 3: Determine a polynomial whose graph passes through the given points. 1,0 , 2,2 , 3,5 Solution: p( x) a0 a1 a2x 2 Substituting x 1,2,3 into 𝑝(𝑥) and equating the results to the respective 𝑦 values.

The associated augmented matrix:
1 1 1 0 1 2 4 2 1 3 9 5 1 1 1 0 0 1 3 2 R R R , R R R 2 2 1 3 3 1 0 2 8 5 1 1 1 0 0 1 3 2 2R R R 2 3 3 0 0 2 1 1 1 1 0 1 0 1 3 2 2 R3 R3 1 0 0 1 2 The corresponding system is
a1 a 2 a 3 0 a2 3a3 2 a3
1 2
Use back substitution:
a1=1,
1 1 a2 , a3 2 2
Therefore
p (x ) 1
1 1 x x 2. 2 2
