The table shows the daily production level and profit for a business. y (Daily Profit) $$ \begin{array}{ll} {x \text { (Number of Units }} & {30} & {50} & {100} \\ {\text { Produced Daily) }} \\ {y \text { (Daily Profit) }} & {\$ 5900} & {\$ 7500} & {\$ 4500} \end{array} $$ Use the quadratic function \(y=a x^{2}+b x+c\) to determine the number of units that should be produced each day for maximum profit. What is the maximum daily profit?
Find (if possible) the following matrices: a. \(A B\) b. \(B A\) $$ A=\left[\begin{array}{rrrr} {2} & {-3} & {1} & {-1} \\ {1} & {1} & {-2} & {1} \end{array}\right], \quad B=\left[\begin{array}{rr} {1} & {2} \\ {-1} & {1} \\ {5} & {4} \\ {10} & {5} \end{array}\right] $$
Determine whether each statement makes sense or does not make sense, and explain your reasoning. I'm working with two matrices that can be added but not multiplied.
Solve each system of equations using matrices. Use Gaussian elimination with back-substitution or Gauss-Jordan elimination. $$ \left\\{\begin{array}{l} {2 x+2 y+7 z=-1} \\ {2 x+y+2 z=2} \\ {4 x+6 y+z=15} \end{array}\right. $$
Solve each system of equations using matrices. Use Gaussian elimination with back-substitution or Gauss-Jordan elimination. $$ \left\\{\begin{aligned} w+x+y+z &=4 \\ 2 w+x-2 y-z &=0 \\ w-2 x-y-2 z &=-2 \\ 3 w+2 x+y+3 z &=4 \end{aligned}\right. $$
