6) The equation \(x^{2}+a x+b=0\) has two real roots \(\alpha\) and \(\beta\). Show that the iterative method given by: \(x_{k+1}=-\dfrac{\left(a x_{k}+b\right)}{x_{k}}\), \(k=0,1,2 \ldots\) is convergent near \(x=\alpha\), if \(\vert \alpha \vert > \vert \beta \vert\).

8) Using Gauss-Seidel iterative method, find the solution of the following system:
\(4 x-y+8 z=26\)

9) Using Gauss Seidel iterative method and the starting solution \(x_{1}=x_{2}=0\), determine the solution of the following system of equations in two iterations:
\(10 x_{1}-x_{2}-x_{3}=8\)
\(x_{1}+10 x_{2}+x_{3}=12\)
