Test 1

Test 1 will be on Wednesday March 5 at 12:00 in B228 in Week 6. Please see the sample here. Everything in Chapters 1 & 2 is examinable but not ‘Round-Off Error and Partial Pivoting’.

Week 5

In Monday’s tutorial we looked at the Jacobi and Gauss-Siedel Methods (as well as a bit of Cramer’s Rule).

In lectures we looked at what can happen when we use rounding when doing Gaussian Elimination… the answer is we have to do partial pivoting. We also began the section on the powerful theory of the Laplace Transform.

Week 6

In Monday’s tutorial we should be looking at our  sample paper — you should print off a copy for yourself. Otherwise look at the sample in the notes but replace the partial pivoting question by a Jacobi/Gauss-Siedel question.

In lectures we will look at partial fractions — a vital technique in the use of the Laplace Transform in solving differential equations.

Exam Format

Five questions do four:

Q. 1 — a question on each chapter.

Q. 2 — questions on chapter 1

Q. 3 — questions on chapter 2

Week 4

In the tutorials we looked at Gaussian Elimination. Also if you download Maple (see below), there is a Maple Tutor that is easy to use and will help you. Open up Maple and go to Tools -> Tutors ->Linear Algebra -> Gaussian Elimination.

In lectures we looked at what to do when a linear system has infinitely many solutions, as well as Cramer’s Rule and the iterative methods of Jacobi and Gauss-Siedel for approximating the solutions of diagonally dominant linear systems.

Week 5

In Monday’s tutorial we will look at the Jacobi and Gauss-Siedel Methods (as well as a bit of Cramer’s Rule).

In lectures we will look at what can happen when we use rounding when doing Gaussian Elimination.

Autumn 2013 Question 1 (b)

Carry out Gaussian Elimination on the following linear system until it is in reduced row form. Do not use decimal rounding.

\left(\begin{array}{ccc} 3 & -1 & 1 \\ 1 & 1 & -1 \\ 2 & -2 & 2\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c} x \\ y \\ z\end{array}\right)=\left(\begin{array}{c} 4 \\ 5 \\ -1\end{array}\right)

Show that there are an infinite number of solutions and find these solutions in terms of a parameter t.

Solution: We start by putting the system into augmented matrix form:

\left[\begin{array}{ c c c | c } 3 & -1 & 1 & 4 \\ 1 & 1 & -1 & 5 \\ 2 & -2 & 2 & -1 \end{array}\right]

Usually I would propose that we would do the ero r_1\rightarrow \frac13 r_1 here but we can be cuter by doing r_1\rightarrow r_1-2r_1 — or, even cuter again — r_1\leftrightarrow r_2,

\left[\begin{array}{ c c c | c } 1 & 1 & -1 & 5 \\ 3 & -1 & 1 & 4 \\ 2 & -2 & 2 & -1 \end{array}\right]

r_2\rightarrow r_2-3r_1 and r_3\rightarrow r_3-2r_1,

\left[\begin{array}{ c c c | c } 1 & 1 & -1 & 5 \\ 0 & -4 & 4 & -11 \\ 0 & -4 & 4 & -11 \end{array}\right]

r_2\rightarrow -\frac14 \cdot r_2, r_3\rightarrow r_3-r_2

\left[\begin{array}{ c c c | c } 1 & 1 & -1 & 5 \\ 0 & 1 & -1 & \frac{11}{4} \\ 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 \end{array}\right]

Now we are in reduced row form. There are solutions and n-r=3-2=1 parameter. We can let z=t where t\in\mathbb{R} be the parameter. Now the second row/equation reads

y-z=\frac{11}{4}\Rightarrow y=\frac{11}{4}+t.

The second row/equation reads

x+y-z=5\Rightarrow x=5-(\frac{11}{4}+t)+t=\frac94.

The solution set is given by:

\displaystyle \left\{\left(\frac94 , \frac{11}{4}+t,t\right)\,:\,t\in\mathbb{R}\right\}.

Test 2 Results

You are identified by the last five digits of your student number. The first column is your Test 1 result while the second is your Test 2 result. The third is your continuous assessment mark out of 30. The fourth is the percentage you must have on the final to pass and the last is the percentage you must have on the final to get 70%. I will have these test papers with me over the remaining classes. One person never put their name on their test and there will be a – where your score should be. The zeroes, unfortunately are genuine zeros. One man is still on for the ton.

Week 12

Review tutorials: questions — Winter 2012 — one-to-one help

Week 13

Review tutorials in the lecture slots: questions — Winter 2012 — one-to-one help

Nothing in the tutorial slot Wednesday 13:30 – 15:30

Math.Stack Exchange

If you find yourself stuck and for some reason feel unable to ask me the question you could do worse than go to the excellent site math.stackexchange.com. If you are nice and polite, and show due deference to these principles you will find that your questions are answered promptly. For example this question on factorising quadratics: a very simple task which, incredibly, some of us are still unable to do.

I am emailing a link of this to everyone on the class list every week. If you are not receiving these emails or want to have them sent to another email address feel free to email me at jpmccarthymaths@gmail.com and I will add you to the mailing list.

Test 2

Test 2 — on Laplace Methods — will now be held at tomorrow, Tuesday 30 April at 13:00 in B190. I have a sample ready here — for q.1(a) let x'(0)=0.

Week 11 and Monday 29 April

We finished off line integrals and looked at double integrals and triple integrals.

Weeks 12 & 13

All slots (from now on) this week are review tutorials.

We will hold review tutorials in Week 13 at the usual lecture times (Wednesday and Thursday) in the usual lecture venues. There will be no review tutorials during the usual tutorial times.

First off, the layout of your exam will be exactly as per Winter 2012.

I will field any questions ye might have at this time and if there are no more questions we will do that Winter 2012 paper.

If we finish this paper I will help ye one-to-one.

For example this question about why dA=r\,dr\,d\theta in Cartesian coordinates.

Tutorials

One more week: yes the following table should be A-L and M-Z not A-L and K-Z!
