Just solve the simultaneous equations. You will get
R = -0.1179838438e-4 * U + Y + 1.139834576 * V
G = -.5805942338 * V -.3946460533 * U + 1.000003946 * Y
B = .9999796789 * Y + 2.032111938 * U -0.1511298066e-4 * V

No. There is one to LUV, not YUV. You can get the relationship between L and Y at easyRGB. You can find the formulas to go from sRGB to YUV at Wikipedia, but why do you want to use that anyway? Why not use YCbCr, or even better, HSI or LAB? What are you trying to do? Can you upload your image somewhere and tell us? How do you know book formulas are going to work for you and you don't need to use calibrated intensity units? Are you sure your RGB is sRGB? (The answer is no, you do not. For example the x-rite Color Checker Chart comes with a list of nominal RGB values for the standard color chips but you will never be able to get those with your camera unless you're extremely lucky with your sensor spectral sensitivities and your exposure.)
