A company manufactures two products. For $1.00 worth of product B, the company spends $.45 on materials, $.25 on labor, and $.15 on overhead. For $1.00 worth of product C, the company spends $.40 on materials, $.30 on labor, and $.15 on overhead. (a) Create two column vectors which represent the “costs per dollar of income” for the two products.

How do you know if three vectors are on the same line? (when they are on the same line we call them co-linear) If when you add them up, you get a constant If they are the same. If they are different. If each is a multiple of the other one. If you multiply the first one by 7 you get the second one and when you multiply the second one by your age, you get the third one for sure.

Given the regression equation in 2 forms: (1) yi = B0 + B1xi + ui; (2) yi = xB + ui (where x and B in the 2nd equation are vectors). And both equations are the same. Does vector x = [1 x1] or [x1] (row vector)? Vector B = [B0; B1] (column vector)? Does
Consider the following vectors: u = (1, −2, −1), v = (-2, 1, 8) Without using the cross product, find a vector n which is orthogonal to both u and U. You need to use a notion from chapter 5 to set up a system of linear equations, then use RREF to solve the system. Explain why this method works.
