Solve Equations 2x+5y=16,3x+y=11 using Gauss Seidel method

Solution:
Total Equations are `2`

`2x+5y=16`

`3x+y=11`


The coefficient matrix of the given system is not diagonally dominant.
Hence, we re-arrange the equations as follows, such that the elements in the coefficient matrix are diagonally dominant.
`3x+y=11`

`2x+5y=16`


From the above equations
`x_(k+1)=1/3(11-y_(k))`

`y_(k+1)=1/5(16-2x_(k+1))`

Initial gauss `(x,y) = (0,0)`

Solution steps are
`1^(st)` Approximation

`x_1=1/3[11-(0)]=1/3[11]=3.6667`

`y_1=1/5[16-2(3.6667)]=1/5[8.6667]=1.7333`

`2^(nd)` Approximation

`x_2=1/3[11-(1.7333)]=1/3[9.2667]=3.0889`

`y_2=1/5[16-2(3.0889)]=1/5[9.8222]=1.9644`

`3^(rd)` Approximation

`x_3=1/3[11-(1.9644)]=1/3[9.0356]=3.0119`

`y_3=1/5[16-2(3.0119)]=1/5[9.9763]=1.9953`

`4^(th)` Approximation

`x_4=1/3[11-(1.9953)]=1/3[9.0047]=3.0016`

`y_4=1/5[16-2(3.0016)]=1/5[9.9968]=1.9994`

`5^(th)` Approximation

`x_5=1/3[11-(1.9994)]=1/3[9.0006]=3.0002`

`y_5=1/5[16-2(3.0002)]=1/5[9.9996]=1.9999`

`6^(th)` Approximation

`x_6=1/3[11-(1.9999)]=1/3[9.0001]=3`

`y_6=1/5[16-2(3)]=1/5[9.9999]=2`


Solution By Gauss Seidel Method.
`x=3~=3`

`y=2~=2`
