Linear Systems: Written by Matrices

Hard

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Hard of Mathematics

In a large engineering system, a building is being designed and energy efficiency is a major concern. To ensure the efficiency of heating and cooling, the air conditioning system must be sized according to the specific needs of the building. The engineer in charge of the project must solve a system of linear equations to determine the ideal operating temperatures. Let the following be the system of equations that models the thermal behavior of the building: 2x + y + 3z = 10, 4x - 6y + 8z = 5, 3x + 7y + 5z = 18. The engineer must rewrite this system of equations in the matrix form Ax = b, where A is the matrix of coefficients, x is the vector of unknowns, and b is the vector of constant terms.
a.
A = [[2, 1, 3], [4, 6, 8], [3, 7, 5]], x = [x, y, z], b = [10, 5, 18]
b.
A = [[2, 1, 3], [4, -6, 8], [3, 7, 5]], x = [x, z, y], b = [10, 18, 5]
c.
A = [[2, 1, 3], [4, -6, 8], [3, 7, 5]], x = [x, y, z, w], b = [10, 5, 18]
d.
A = [[2, 1, 3], [4, -6, 8], [3, 7, 5]], x = [x, y], b = [10, 5, 18]
e.
A = [[2, 1, 3], [4, -6, 8], [3, 7, 5]], x = [x, y, z], b = [10, 5, 18]

In a science project, students need to measure different volumes of liquids for their experiments. The scale used to measure the volume of water can only measure in multiples of 100 milliliters. When measuring, the scale shows 450.725 grams of water. We know that the density of water is 1 g/ml. (1) Round the volume measured by the scale to the nearest milliliter. (2) Explain why the scale provided a number in grams instead of milliliters and how you used the density of water to convert the measurement back to volume in milliliters.

João is organizing a birthday party and wants to make a larger quantity of his favorite cake recipe. The original recipe yields a cake with 20 slices and uses 3 cups of flour, 2 cups of sugar, and 1 cup of oil. João wants to make a cake with 40 slices. a) How many cups of flour, sugar, and oil should he use to make a cake that yields 40 slices? b) If he wanted to make a cake with 60 slices, what would be the quantity of cups of each ingredient? c) João noticed that the number of cake slices is always half the number of cups of water used in the recipe. How many cups of water are needed for a cake of 80 slices?
