- Revenue: An electronics manufacturer produces three models of high-definition televisions, which are shipped to two warehouses. The shipment levels are represented by A. 12WarehouseA=5,0004,0006,00010,0008,0005,000ABCModel The prices per unit are represented by the matrix B=$699.95$899.95$1099.95. Compute BA and interpret the result.arrow_forwardAgriculture A fruit grower raises two crops, apples and peaches. The grower ships each of these crops to three different outlets. In the matrix A=12510075100175125 aij represents the number of units of crop i that the grower ships to outlet j. The matrix B=3.506.00 represents the profit per unit. Find the product BA and state what each entry of the matrix represents.arrow_forwardSolving for the Output Matrix A small community includes a farmer, a baker, and a grocer and has the input-output matrix D and external demand matrix E below.

- 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_forwardUse matrix methods to solve each problem Nutritional planning One ounce of each of three foods has the vitamin and mineral content shown in the table.
