Example 1. 1. The iterative rule po 1 and pk+1= 1.001pk for k=0, 1,..pro- duces a divergent sequence. The first 100 terms look as follows: P1=1.0170=(1.001010001.00100 p2=1011=(1001)(1.0000001 3=1012=(1001)(1.002011.00300 p100=1.0019(1.001)(1.104012)=1.105116
Theorem 3.7. (Elementary Transformations). The following opera- tions applied to a linear system yield an equivalent system: ()Interchange: The order of two equations can be changed. (2)Scaling: Multiplying an equation by a nonzero constant. (3)Replacement: An equation can be replaced by the sum of itself and a nonzero multiple of any other equation
