Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel Iterative Methods

Consider the following system:

      6x - 2y +  z = 11
       x + 2y - 5z = -1
     -2x + 7y + 2z = 5
  1. First rearrange the equations so the coefficient matrix is diagonally dominant.

  2. Perform the first two iterations of the Jacobi method (on the re-arranged system) starting with the vector x = 0, y = 0, z = 0.

  3. Perform the first two iterations of the Gauss-Seidel method for this system (again, rearranged and starting with the 0 vector).
