An electronics company produces​ transistors, resistors, and computer chips. Each transistor requires 3 units of​ copper, 1 unit

of​ zinc, and 2 units of glass. Each resistor requires 3​, 2​, and 1 units of the three​ materials, and each computer chip requires 2​, 1​, and 2 units of these​ materials, respectively. How many of each product can be made with 1730 units of​ copper, 690 units of​ zinc, and 1380 units of​ glass? Solve this exercise by using the inverse of the coefficient matrix to solve a system of equations.

Answer:

An electronics company can be produce 350 transistors and 340 computer chips, they can´t produce resistors.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We will name the variables for transistors, resistors and the computer chips.

a = Transistors

b= Resistors

c = Computer chips

2. We propose three linear equations, one for the copper, one for the zinc and one for the glass.

\left \{ {{3a+3b+2c=1730} \atop {a+2b+c=690}}\atop {2a+b+2c=1380}} \right.

3. We write the matrix form as Ax=d

A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&3&2\\1&2&1\\2&1&2\end{array}\right)

x=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}a\\b\\c\end{array}\right)

A=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1730\\690\\1380\end{array}\right)

With this formula the solution of x is x=\frac{d}{A} or x=A^{-1}d

4. We will find the inverse matrix A^{-1} using the formula:

A^{-1} = \frac{1}{detA} (C_{A})^{T}

a. det A

det A=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&3&2\\1&2&1\\2&1&2\end{array}\right] =3*(4-1)-3*(2-2)+2*(1-4)=9-0-6=3

b. (C_{A})^{T}

C_{A}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}4-1&.(2-2)&1-4\\-(6-2)&6-4&-(3-6)\\3-4&-(3-2)&6-3\end{array}\right)

C_{A}=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&.0&-3\\-4&2&3\\-1&-1&3\end{array}\right)

(C_{A}) ^T=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&0&-3\\-4&2&3\\-1&-1&3\end{array}\right)^T

(C_{A}) ^T=\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)

c.A^{-1}

A^{-1}=\frac{1}{3} \left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)

5. As x=\frac{d}{A} or x=A^{-1}d, the solution of x is:

x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}3&-4&-1\\0&2&-1\\-3&3&3\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1730\\690\\1380\end{array}\right)

x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}(3*1730)+(-4*690)+(-1*1380)\\(0*1730)+(2*690)+(-1*1380)\\(-3*1730)+(3*690)+(3*1380)\end{array}\right)

x=\frac{1}{3}\left(\begin{array}{ccc}1050\\0\\1020)\end{array}\right)

X=\left[\begin{array}{ccc}350\\0\\340\end{array}\right]

<u><em>Therefore:</em></u>

<u><em>a= 350 Transistors</em></u>

<u><em>b=0 Resistors</em></u>

<u><em>c=340 Computer chips</em></u>

What fraction of 3 is 2 2/5
Yuki888 [10]

Answer: 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can view that as what do we multiply 3 by to get 2 2/5 and call that value x

3x = 2 2/5

x = (2 2/5)/3

Let's turn 2 2/5 into an improper fraction... 2 2/5 = 12/5

So we have

x = (12/5)/3 = (12/5)(1/3) = 4/5

Thus 2 2/5 is 4/5 of 3

Verify:  3(4/5) = 12/5 = 2 2/5

FOR BRAINLIEST ANSWER ONLY:<br><br> 2.<br><br> 3.<br><br> 4.<br><br> 6.
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

2. x = 2 & y = 4

3. x = 4 & y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

2. x + y = 6

  2x + y = 8  (multiply the first equation by -1,  so you can eliminate the ys)

- x - y = -6

2x + y = 8  (now add the variables together)

x = 2 (plug in x in one of the equations to find out y)

x + y = 6

(2) + y = 6

-2           -2

y = 4

3. 3x + y = 14

          x = 2y (plug in x into the first equation and solve it for y)

3(2y) + y = 14

6y + y = 14

7y = 14

y =  2  (plug in y in one of the equations to find out x)

x = 2y

x = 2(2)

x = 4

4.  One number (x) is 2 more (+2) than twice (times 2) as large as another. their sum is 17. Find the numbers.

2x + 2 = 17 (solve for x)

     -2     -2

2x = 15

x = 7.5

6. 7 (4x + 1) - (x + 6) (start by distributing 7 into the first parenthesis)

  (28x + 7) - (x + 6) (do the same to the other parenthesis by distributing -1)

  (28x + 7)  (-x - 6) (and now just combine like terms)

   28x + 7 - x - 6

   28x - x + 7 - 6

   27x + 1

i hope this helped! if you have any question, pls let me know!

Look at your picture

notice the coordinates for the center of the circle, the x,y or h,k values
notice how long the radius is

thus \bf \qquad \textit{equation of a circle}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;&#10;(x-{{ h}})^2+(y-{{ k}})^2={{ r}}^2&#10;\qquad center\ ({{ h}},{{ k}})\qquad&#10;radius={{ r}}
