How would you write a system of linear equations based on the given scenario and directions? Scenario You are employed as a network engineer and have been asked to analyze a communication network to determine the current data rates and ensure that the links aren’t at risk of “reaching capacity.” In the following figure of the network, the sender is transmitting data at a total rate of 100+50 = 150 megabits per second (Mbps). The data is transmitted from the sender to the receiver over a network of five different routers. These routers are labeled A, B, C, D, and E. The connections and data rates between the routers are labeled as x1,x2, x3, x4, and x5 . Directions For this assignment, you will analyze the communication network and solve for the unknown data rates using a variety of techniques. The system can be modeled mathematically as a system of linear equations by writing an equation for each node/router in the network. Each of these equations can be written by noting that the sum of inputs must equal the sum of outputs.
