- A fruit grower raises two crops, which are shipped to three outlets.
The number of units of Product i that is shipped to Outlet j is represented
by a_ij in the matrix
A:=Matrix([[100 75 75], [125 150 100]]).
The profit of one unit of Product i is represented by b_1i in the
matrix
B:=Matrix([[$3.75 $7.00]])

c) no but I am unsure of why not
d) no and I have a good reason of why not

- You have a business that sells tables and chairs. You have brown tables and
white
tables, and corresponding chairs. Your May sales are 4 brown tables, 6 white
tables, 20
brown chairs, and 24 white chairs, which is represented by the matrix M =
Matrix([[4,6],[20,24]]) where the first row is tables, the second row is
chairs, the first column is brown items, and the second column is white items.
