Homework Statement


I'm given the values: UH=2031, BH=36927 and VH=146405 and I'm asked to solve the following equations iteratively to find UJ BJ and VJ.



Homework Equations


UJ=UH+0.179(BJ-VJ)
BJ=BH+0.060(BJ-VJ)
VJ=VH-0.004(BJ-VJ)

I don't know how to solve equations iteratively please help!

I'm in desperate need of help. Any would be greatly appreciated :)

think about linear system.. look at your equatons ;)
 
more help would be appreciated I have no experience with the linear system :/ thanks :)
 
tried lookin the linear system up but there's so many methods I don't know which to use :/

I should note that this is part of a larger astronomy project but I posted it in a maths forum as I only need to know how to solve the equations. I've stared at the equations for hours and looked up linear systems but I don't think I'm any closer :/

Thread 'Finding the nth roots of a complex number'

There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
