- CAPSTONE In your own words, describe the difference between a matrix in row-echelon form and a matrix in reduced row echelon form. Include an example of each to support your explanation.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. How many ounces of each must be used to provide exactly 22 milligrams mg of niacin, 12 mg of zinc, and 20 mg of vitamin C?

(d) Find the basis for the null space of A. (e) Is the last column of A in the span of the first three columns of A? (f) Are the first three column s of A linearly independent? (g) Is the last column of A in the span of columns 1, 3, and 4? (h) Are the columns 1, 3, and 4 linearly dependent?arrow_forward
- Nutrition A nutritionist is studying the effects of the nutrients folic acid, choline, and inositol. He has three types of food available, and each type contains the following amounts of these nutrients per ounce. (a) Find the inverse of the matrix [313424324] and use it to solve the remaining parts of this problem. (b) How many ounces of each food should the nutritionist feed his laboratory rats if he wants their daily diet to contain 10 mg of folic acid, 14 mg of choline, and 13 mg of inositol? (c) How much of each food is needed to supply 9 mg of folic acid, 12 mg of choline, and 10 mg of inositol? (d) Will any combination of these foods supply 2 mg of folic acid, 4 mg of choline, and 11 mg of inositol?arrow_forwardUse matrix methods to solve each problem. Chainsaw sculpting A wood sculptor carves three types of statues with a chainsaw. The number of hours required for carving, sanding, and painting a totem pole, a bear, and a deer are shown in the table. How many of each should be produced to use all available labor hours? Totem Pole Bear Deer Time Available Carving 2 hr 2 hr 1 hr 14 hr Sanding 1 hr 2 hr 2 hr 15 hr Painting 3 hr 2 hr 2 hr 21 hrarrow_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_forward
