1. Find LU Decomposition using Gauss Elimination method of Matrix ...
`[[8,-6,2],[-6,7,-4],[2,-4,3]]`


Solution:
`LU` decomposition : If we have a square matrix A, then an upper triangular matrix U can be obtained without pivoting under Gaussian Elimination method, and there exists lower triangular matrix L such that A=LU.


Here `A` = 
`8``-6``2`
`-6``7``-4`
`2``-4``3`


Using Gaussian Elimination method
`R_2 larr R_2-``(-0.75)``xx R_1` `[:.L_(2,1)=color{blue}{-0.75}]`

 = 
`8``-6``2`
`0``2.5``-2.5`
`2``-4``3`


`R_3 larr R_3-``(0.25)``xx R_1` `[:.L_(3,1)=color{blue}{0.25}]`

 = 
`8``-6``2`
`0``2.5``-2.5`
`0``-2.5``2.5`


`R_3 larr R_3-``(-1)``xx R_2` `[:.L_(3,2)=color{blue}{-1}]`

 = 
`8``-6``2`
`0``2.5``-2.5`
`0``0``0`


`:.U` = 
`8``-6``2`
`0``2.5``-2.5`
`0``0``0`


`L` is just made up of the multipliers we used in Gaussian elimination with 1s on the diagonal.

`:.L` = 
`1``0``0`
`color{blue}{-0.75}``1``0`
`color{blue}{0.25}``color{blue}{-1}``1`


Now checking `A=LU` ?

`LU` = 
`1``0``0`
`-0.75``1``0`
`0.25``-1``1`
 `xx` 
`8``-6``2`
`0``2.5``-2.5`
`0``0``0`
 = 
`8``-6``2`
`-6``7``-4`
`2``-4``3`


And `A` = 
`8``-6``2`
`-6``7``-4`
`2``-4``3`


Solution is possible.
