Short Answer

Find the least square solutions of the system Ax=b where

A=[1110-100010-10] and b=[110-1010-10].

The solution is a=1-10-4010-40+10-20-1, and b=10-201+10-2010-40+10-20-1.

Step by Step Solution

Step:1 Definition of least square

Consider a linear system as Ax=b.

Here A is an matrix, a vector x in Rn called a least square solution of this system if role="math" localid="1659687531916" b-Axkb-Axk for all x in Rm.

Step:2 Explanation of the solution

Consider a linear system as Ax=b where A=1110-100010-10 and b=110-1010-10and A also A is A is an matrix, a vector x in Rn called a least square solution of this system if

localid="1659688022040" b-Axkb-Axk for all x in Rm

The term least square solution reflects the fact that minimizing the sum of the squares of the component of the vector b-Ax.

To show xk of a linear system Ax=b.

Consider the following string of equivalent statements.

The vector xk is a least square solution of the system Ax=b.

Then by the definition as follows.

b-Axkb-Axk for all x in Rm

Also by the theorem 5.4.3 as follows.

Ax=projb where V=imA

Similarly by the theorem 5.1.4 and 5.4.1 as follows.

b-Ax is in V-=imA=kerATATb-Ax=0ATAx=ATb.

Therefore, the least square of the system Ax=b are the exact solution of the system .

ATAx=ATb

The system ATAx=ATb is called the normal equation of .

Now, simplify as follows.

110-1001010-101110-100010-10=110-1001010-10110-1010-10 1+10101110-20x=1+10-201+10-20 x1x2=abwhere x1=a1+10-4010-40+10-20-1 and x2 =b=10-201+10-2010-40+10-20 -1Hence, the solution is a=1+10-4010-40+10-20-1 and b=10-201+10-2010-40+10-20 -1 .
