Given \(A=\begin{pmatrix}2&1\\1&2\end{pmatrix}\) and \(\mathbf{b}=(3,3)\), what is \(x^{(2)}\) with Jacobi from \((0,0)\)?

Choose one option.

Show answer
  • C. \(3/4\)

Explanation

Jacobi gives \(x^{(1)}=y^{(1)}=3/2\) and then \(x^{(2)}=(3-y^{(1)})/2=3/4\), using only the previous iteration.

Review the concept: Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel methods

The Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel methods are iterative procedures that approximate the solution of a linear system \(A\mathbf{x}=\mathbf{b}\) by repeatedly updating its components.

\[x_i^{(k+1)}=\frac{1}{a_{ii}}\left(b_i-\sum_{j\neq i}a_{ij}x_j^{(k)}\right)\]
