The entries of A are aij. Assuming that zeros don't appear, what is(a) the first pivot?(b) the multiplier L31 of row 1 to be subtracted from row 3?(c) the new entry that replaces a32 after that subtraction?(d) the second pivot?
Farmer S. Unkist has a fruit grove consisting of lemons, bananas, and watermelons along a straight moat. To prevent thieves from stealing his fruit while at the same time make sure the fruit do not mix before they are processed, he plans to fence in each fruit plot using identical rectangular enclosures. The side along the moat needs no fence because the moat is infested with man eating crocodiles as shown below. If he has 1200 yards of fence, what should be the dimensions of each enclosure if the total area of the grove is to be maximized? PLEASE USE CALCULUS TECHNIQUES TO OBTAIN YOUR ANSWER AND SHOW ALL WORK.
If the last corner entry is A ( 5, 5) = 11 and the last pivot of A is U ( 5, 5) = 4, what different entry A(5, 5) would have made A singular?
The North part of the city has two perfectly circular and concentric ring roads (see figure below), the outer ring road (OR) being twice as long as the inner ring road (IR). There are also four (straight line) chord roads from E1, the east end point of OR to N2, the north end point of IR; from N1, the north end point of OR to W2, the west end point of IR; from W1, the west end point of OR, to S2, the south end point of IR; and from S1 the south end point of OR to E2, the east end point of IR. Find the ratio of the sum of lengths of all chord roads to the length of outer ring road?
Accounting for the limited street parking in Philadelphia, the university has created a map ofthe n ≥ 2 possible locations to park scooters near campus, as well as the bidirectional pathsthat connect these parking spots. The map includes Houston Hall and Franklin Field as specialparking locations that are designated for scooter pick-up.To enforce organization and decrease the risk of scooter-related injuries, the university wantsto assign a one-way direction to each scooter path on the map (which means choosing anorientation; refer to the last paragraph) such that: all paths connected to Houston Hall leadaway from Houston Hall, all paths connected to Franklin Field lead to Franklin Field, and forany other parking spot, it is impossible to return to that same spot once you’ve left it. As anMath student, you have been tasked to prove it is possible to satisfy these conditions. Note that the parking spots can be visualized as vertices and the scooter paths as edges in graphG. An…

Suppose that a temperature of a metal plate is given by T(x,y)=x2+2x+y2, for points (x,y) on the elliptic plate defined by 6x2+5y2≤60. Find the maximum and minimum temperatures on the plate. Use Lagrange Multipliers to determine the absolute extrema of f on the indicated constraint.
Suppose three similar geometric figures are constructed off the three sides of a right triangle in such a manner that A1 = ka2, A2 = kb2, and A3 = kc2, where the constant of proportionality k is the same for all three figures. Show that A1 + A2 = A3.
Prove that if you minimize the square of the distancefrom the origin to a point (x, y) subject to the constraintg(x, y) = 0, you have minimized the distance from theorigin to (x, y) subject to the same constraint.
In an orchestra, 23 people can play stringed instruments, 21 can play brass, and 15 can play percussion. Further, 9 of the performers can play both strings and brass, whereas 8 can play both strings and percussion. If no one can play all three types of instruments, what are the maximum and minimum numbers of people in the orchestra? (Hint. Consider expressing the numbers in some of the regions of your diagram in terms of a single unknown, say x.)
