Consider solving the following system of simultaneous equations using LU decomposition: x1 + x2 - 2x3 = 4 x1 + 3x2 - x3 = 72x1 + x2 - 5x3 = 7 where L and U are denoted as Doolittle factorization forms with 1s on the principal diagonal of L. Which one of the following is the correct combination of values for L32, U33, and x1?
- 1L32 = -12, U33 = -12, x1 = 0
- 2L32 = -12, U33 = 2, x1 = 0
- 3L32 = 2, U33 = 2, x1 = -1
- 4L32 = 2, U33 = -12, x1 = -1✓
Correct answer
L32 = 2, U33 = -12, x1 = -1
