Digital Images A four-level gray scale is shown below.
- (a) Use the gray scale to find a 6 × 6 matrix that digitally represents the image in the figure.
- (b) Find a matrix that represents a darker version of the image in the figure.
- (c) The negative of an image is obtained by reversing light and dark, as in the negative of a photograph. Find the matrix that represents the negative of the image in the figure. How do you change the elements of the matrix to create the negative?
- (d) Increase the contrast of the image by changing each 1 to a 0 and each 2 to a 3 in the matrix you found in part (a). Draw the image represented by the resulting matrix. Does this clarify the image?
- (e) Draw the image represented by the matrix I. Can you recognize what this is? If you don’t, try increasing the contrast.

Include an example of each to support your explanation.arrow_forwardNutrition 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_forward
- Nutrition A nutritionist is studying the effects of the nutrients folic acid, choline, and inositol. He has three types of food available, and each type contains the following amounts of these nutrients per ounce. (a) Find the inverse of the matrix [313424324] and use it to solve the remaining parts of this problem. (b) How many ounces of each food should the nutritionist feed his laboratory rats if he wants their daily diet to contain 10 mg of folic acid, 14 mg of choline, and 13 mg of inositol? (c) How much of each food is needed to supply 9 mg of folic acid, 12 mg of choline, and 10 mg of inositol? (d) Will any combination of these foods supply 2 mg of folic acid, 4 mg of choline, and 11 mg of inositol?arrow_forwardUse matrix methods to solve each problem.
