Short Answer

Does the following matrix have an LU factorization? See Exercises 2.4.90 and 2.4.93.

A=[742531314]

Yes, the given matrix does have an LU factorization.

See the step by step solution

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Matrix Definition. 

Matrix is a set of numbers arranged in rows and columns so as to form a rectangular array.

The numbers are called the elements, or entries, of the matrix.

If there are m rows and n columns, the matrix is said to be an “m by n” matrix, written “m×n.”

Step 2: Given. 

Given matrix,

A=[742531314]

Step 3: To find the given matrix is LU factorization or not. 

As seen from Exercise 2.4.93.c, an n×n matrix has an LU factorization if all of its principal sub matrices are invertible.

We have,

A1=7A2=7453,A3=742531314

To solve,

detA1=70detA2=10detA3=10

Since, all of its principal sub matrices A are invertible.

Thus, A does have an LU factorization.
