(a)
To Calculate: How a meal should be prepared such that meal of beans-on-toast contains 20 grams of protein and 80 grams of carbohydrates if Campbell Soup Company’s amount of nutrition for one serve contains Campbell’s Pork and Beans with 5 grams of protein and 21 grams of carbohydrates and a slice of bread with 4 grams of protein and 12 grams of carbohydrates.
(b)
To calculate: The formula for number of slices of bread and Pork and Beans used if A grams of protein and B grams of carbohydrates is required if Campbell Soup Company’s amount of nutrition for one serve contains Campbell’s Pork and Beans with 5 grams of protein and 21 grams of carbohydrates and a slice of bread with 4 grams of protein and 12 grams of carbohydrates.

- In a previous section, we showed that matrix multiplication is not commutative, that is, ABBA in most cases. Can you explain why matrix multiplication is commutative for matrix inverses, that is, A1A=AA1 ?arrow_forwardWhich of the following operations can we perform for a matrix A of any dimension? (i) A+A (ii) 2A (iii) AAarrow_forwardWrite the augmented matrix of the given system of equations. 4x3y=113x+2y=4arrow_forward
- Solve the system using the inverse of the coefficient matrix. 2x17y+11z=0x+11y7z=83y2z=2arrow_forwardIs there only one correct method of using row operations on a matrix? Try to explain two different row operations possible to solve the augmented matrix [9312|06] .arrow_forwardFor the following exercise, use a calculator to solve the system equations with matrix inverses. 45. 12.3x2y2.5z=236.9x+7y7.5z=78y5z=10arrow_forward
- When Do Matrices Have Inverse? Find the inverse of the matrix. For what value(s) of x, if any, does the matrix have no inverse? [x1x 1 x1]arrow_forwardNutrition 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_forward
