How could I arrange a matrix of 4 alloys with Cu,Zn and Pb composition to determine the % comp. of new alloy?
Cu 54 53 54 51
Zn 31 32 29 30
Pb 3 2 4 3
Get a new alloy with 53.2% Cu 30.2% Zn and 3.2% Pb using the four Alloys mention above. Total amount mixed 600Kg.
I have tried all kinds of arrangements in the matrix to obtain x,y.z and w, but the results do not have any logic. Deteminants is cool and fun but this one got me. Anybody please help.

First define a matrix of four alloy compositions be a 3 x 4 matrix we'll call "A". Let your amounts of the four different alloys be a 4-vector we'll call "X". (the four elements of X are what you called w, x, y, and z). Let 600 Kg be a simple scalar value we'll call "S". And finally define a second 4-vector "B" that is the fractional content of each metal in the new alloy. The elements of "B" are therefore 0.532, 0.302, and 0.032. When you multiply the 3 x 4 matrix times your 4-vector X (which is a 4 x 1 column matrix), then you should get a 3-vector (S times B).
Thus your equation is AX = SB, and you are meant to solve for X. You need to take the inverse of A so that you can write:
X = S(A-inverse)B
Thus you do have to invert a matrix but you shouldn't need to calculate any determinants.

What a eye-catching Composition, Its a sparkling portray of your poetic Excellence My expensive Deito. enable me repeat as quickly as, oh my god i'm in love with those words of yours : ~~~~~~~ Prana Hansa, unfold your wings and fly, To the nation-states, the place count mystify ! Mano Hansa, unfold your wings and fly, To the nation-states, the place mind Purify ! Jeeva Hansa, unfold your wings and fly, To the nation-states, the place dying Defy ! ~~~~~~~ final time once you wrote in Urdu and Hindi, i grow to be no longer able to are conscious of it thoroughly. yet right here i think Jeeva Hansa is soul, Prana Hansa is physique and Mana Hansa is techniques. quite eye-catching , and Why do i've got self belief some particular Vibrations, in this association of words, as though i'm spelling some chant, or spell, and a few mantra of a few style. even in spite of the incontrovertible fact that that's in engligh, it sounds like some mantra. what's this actual vibration Deito, are you able to describe me please, aside style the rhyming words and decision and which skill, there is a few sacred vibration, i will sense it, and that i see that some others ahve additionally felt the comparable way. waiting for respond from you, My expensive Deito. a lot and a lot of love. EDIT EDIT EDIT : thank you plenty Deito, i admire you plenty, can i'm getting a good hug please. Ariel.
