Elementary Transformation of a matrix: The following operation on a matrix are called elementary operations (transformations) 1. The interchange of any two rows (or columns) 2. The multiplication of the elements of any row (or column) by any nonzero number 3. The addition to the elements of any row (or column) the corresponding elements of any other row (or column) multiplied by any number Echelon Form of matrix : A matrix A is said to be in echelon form if (i) every row of A which has all its elements 0, occurs below row, which has a non-zero elements (ii) the first non-zero element in each non –zero row is 1. (iii) The number of zeros before the first non zero elements in a row is less than the number of such zeros in the next now. [ A row of a matrix is said to be a zero row if all its elements are zero] Note: Rank of a matrix does not change by application of any elementary operations For example [(1,1,3),(0,1,2),(0,0,0)],[(1,1,3,6),(0,1,2,2),(0,0,0,0)] are echelon forms The number of non-zero rows in the echelon form of a matrix is defined as its RANK. For example we can reduce the matrix A=[(1,2,3),(2,4,7),(3,6,10)] into echelon form using following elementary row transformation. (i) R_2 to R_2 -2R_1 and R_3 to R_3 -3R_1 [(1,2,3),(0,0,1),(0,0,1)] (ii) R_2 to R_2 -2R_1 [(1,2,3),(0,0,1),(0,0,0)] This is the echelon form of matrix A Number of nonzero rows in the echelon form =2 rArr Rank of the matrix A is 2 Rank of the matrix [(1,1,1,-1),(1,2,4,4),(3,4,5,2)] is :

Most chickens reach maturity and begin laying eggs at around 20 weeks of age. From this point forward, however, as the chicken ages,its eges its egg production decreases. A farmer was given a flock of 100 chickens (all of which were the same age) and asked to meaure daily egg output for the entire flock at random intervals starting at maturity until the chickens were 70 weeks old. The data are recorded in the scatteplot below and the line of best fit has been drawn. How many times did the farmer's data differ by more than 5 eggs from the number of eggs predicted by the line of best fit ?

A farmer has a supply of chemical fertilizer of type. A which 10% nitrogen and 6% phosphoric acid and of type B which contains 5% nitrogen and 10% phosphoric acid. After soil test, it is found that at least 7kg of nitrogen and same quantity fo phosphoric acid is required for a good crop. The fertilizer of type A costs 5.00 per kg and the type B costs 8.00 per kg. Using Linear programming, find how many kilograms of each type of the fertilizer should be bought to meet the requirement and for the cost to be minimum. Find hte feasible region in the graph.
