Chapter review

To reinforce her diet, Mrs. Tam bought a bottle containing 30 tablets of Supplement A size 12{A} {} and a bottle containing 50 tablets of Supplement B size 12{B} {} . Each tablet of supplement A size 12{A} {} contains 1000 mg of calcium, 400 mg of magnesium, and 15 mg of zinc, and each tablet of supplement B size 12{B} {} contains 800 mg of calcium, 500 mg of magnesium, and 20 mg of zinc.

  1. Represent the amount of calcium, magnesium and zinc in each tablet as a 2 × 3 size 12{2 times 3} {} matrix.

  2. Represent the number of tablets in each bottle as a row matrix.

  3. Use matrix multiplication to determine the total amount of calcium, magnesium, and zinc in both bottles.

Chris, Bob, and Matt decide to help each other study during the final exams. Chris's favorite subject is chemistry, Bob loves biology, and Matt knows his math. Each studies his own subject as well as helps the others learn their subjects. After the finals, they realize that Chris spent 40% of his time studying his own subject chemistry, 30% of his time helping Bob learn chemistry, and 30% of the time helping Matt learn chemistry. Bob spent 30% of his time studying his own subject biology, 30% of his time helping Chris learn biology, and 40% of the time helping Matt learn biology. Matt spent 20% of his time studying his own subject math, 40% of his time helping Chris learn math, and 40% of the time helping Bob learn math.
