a. Find all solutionsx1,x2,x3,x4 of the system .

x2=12(x1+x3),x3=12(x2+x4)

b. In partrole="math" localid="1659677484607" (a) , is there a solution with x1=1andx4=13 ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. For arbitrary x3and x4, x1=3x3−2x4,x2=2x3−x4

b. Yes, x1=1,x2=5,x3=9,x4=13

Step by step solution

01

(a)Step 1: Consider the equations to find other equations

Find the expression for,x1.

x2=12(x1+x3)2x2=x1+x3x1=2x2−x3 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰......(1)

Find the expression for, x2.

x3=12(x2+x4)2x3=x2+x4x2=2x3−x4 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â€‰â€‰â€‰â€‰......(2)

02

Express the variable in terms of other variables

Re-write x1in terms of x3andx4 .

x1=2x2−x3x1=2(2x3−x4)−x3=3x3−2x4 â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰â¶Ä‰......(3)

Therefore, x1=3x3−2x4,x2=2x3−x4

03

(b)Step 3: Using the above equations, find the values of the variables

Consider the given values of the variables.

x1=1andx4=13

Substitute these values in the above equations to find the values of the remaining variables.

Consider the equation (3).

x1=3x3−2x41=3x3−2×13x3=273=9

Consider the equation (2).

x2=2x3−x4=2×9−13=18−13=5

Therefore, x1=1,x2=5,x3=9,x4=13.
