Problem Statement. Solve the following tridiagonal system:
[2.04 -1

Solution. As with Gauss elimination, the first step involves transforming the matrix to
upper triangular form. This is done by multiplying the first equation by the factor ez/fi and
subtracting the result from the second equation. This creates a zero in place of ez and trans-
forms the other coefficients to new values,

f2 = fr -g1 = 2.04

r2 = r2 --ri = 0.8 –
-1
(40.8) = 20.8
2.04
fi
Notice that g, is unmodified because the element above it in the first row is zero.
After performing a similar calculation for the third and fourth rows, the system is trans-
formed to the upper triangular form
