Question
### Pacific Airlines Seat Allocation and Revenue Calculation

Pacific Airlines operates three flights between Los Angeles and Hong Kong. The matrix \( A \) represents the number of seats in each of the three cabin classes (First class, Premium economy, and Economy) on each flight.

#### Matrix \( A \):

\[
A = \begin{pmatrix}
    50 & 70 & 140 \\
    40 & 50 & 170 \\
    30 & 40 & 200 \\
\end{pmatrix}
\]

- **Flight I (Row 1):** 50 First class seats, 70 Premium economy seats, 140 Economy seats.
- **Flight II (Row 2):** 40 First class seats, 50 Premium economy seats, 170 Economy seats.
- **Flight III (Row 3):** 30 First class seats, 40 Premium economy seats, 200 Economy seats.

#### Matrix \( B \):

The fares per passenger (in dollars) for each class of seats are given by matrix \( B \):

\[
B = \begin{pmatrix}
    6000 \\
    3500 \\
    1500 \\
\end{pmatrix}
\]

- **First class:** $6000 
- **Premium economy:** $3500
- **Economy:** $1500

#### Matrix \( C \):
The number of each type of flight operated by Pacific Airlines in June is given by matrix \( C \):

\[
C = \begin{pmatrix}
    8 \\
    6 \\
    6 \\
\end{pmatrix}
\]

- **Flight I:** 8 flights
- **Flight II:** 6 flights
- **Flight III:** 6 flights

### Calculations:
#### (a) Compute \( AB \):

\[
AB = \begin{pmatrix}
    & & \\
    & & \\
    & & \\
\end{pmatrix}
\]

**Explanation**
- \( AB \) represents the total revenue for all seats for the three flights.

#### (b) Compute \( CAB \):

\[
CAB = \begin{pmatrix}
    & & \\
    & & \\
    & & \\
\end{pmatrix}
\]

Matrix \( CAB \) will give us the total revenue generated by Pacific Airlines in June for each type of seat class.
