A mining company has two mines. One day's operation at mine #1 produces ore that contains 40 metric tons of copper and 600 kilograms of silver, while one day's operation of mine#2 produces ore that contains 50 metric tons of copper and 580 kilograms of silver. Let v₁ = [400] and v₂ = [50]. Then v₁ and v₂ represent the "output per day" of mine #1 and mine#2, respectively. Complete parts (a) through (c). (a) What physical interpretation can be given to the vector 2v₁? O A. It is the output of copper at mine#1 after 2 days of operation. o B. It is the output at mine#2 after two days of operation. o C. It is the output of silver at mine#1 after 2 days of operation. o D. It is the output at mine #1 after 2 days of operation. (b) Suppose the company operates mine#1 for x₁ days and mine #2 for x₂ days. Write a vector equation in terms of v₁ and v₂ whose solution gives the number of days each mine should operate in order to produce 276 tons of copper and 3528 kilograms of silver. Do not solve the equation. _v₁ + _________v₂ = (Write an integer or decimal for each matrix element)
