- Industrial System An industrial system has two industries with the input requirements below. (a) To produce 1.00 worth of output, Industry A requires 0.20 of its own product and 0.30 of Industry Bs product. (b) To produce 1.00 worth of output, Industry B requires 0.10 of its own product and 0.50 of Industry As product. Find D, the input-output matrix for this system. Then solve for the output matrix X in the equation X=DX+E, where E is the external demand matrix E=[40,00080,000].arrow_forwardWhich of the following operations can we perform for a matrix A of any dimension? (i) A+A (ii) 2A (iii) AAarrow_forwardFind ATA and AAT for the matrix below. What do you observe? A=[132461]arrow_forward
- Nutrition Refer to Exercise 61. Suppose food type C has been improperly labeled, and it actually contains 4 mg of folic acid, 6 mg of choline, and 5 mg of inositol per ounce. Would it still be possible to use matrix inversion to solve parts (b), (c), and (d) of Exercise 61? Why or why not?arrow_forwardGuided proof Prove the associative property of matrix addition: A+B+C=A+B+C. Getting Started: To prove that A+B+C and A+B+C are equal, show that their corresponding entries are equal. i Begin your proof by letting A, B, and C be mn matrices. ii Observe that the ij th entry of B+C is bij+cij. iii Furthermore, the ij th entry of A+B+C is aij+bij+cij. iv Determine the ij th entry of A+B+C.arrow_forward
