29, Suppose
(eel[s s]eLi al:
This gives the system of equations ad = 0,ae = 1,bd = 1,be + cf = 0. The first two equations are satisfied
‘only when a 4 0 and d = 0. But this incompatible with the third equation.
30. Since A is row equivalent to B there are elementary matrices such that B = E,...,A and since B
is row equivalent to C' there are elementary. matrices such that C = Dy...D,B. Then C = Dy... DiB =
Dn ....D Em... EA and hence, A is row equivalent to C.
31. If A is invertible, there are elementary matrices E1,...,#, such that I = E,-+-E,A. Similarly, there
are elementary matrices D,,...,.D¢ such that J = De---D,B. Then A= By! tee Ey" De «+ DB, so A is row
equivalent to B. :
32. a. Since L is invertible, the diagonal entries are all nonzero. b. The determinant of A is the product
of the diagonal entries of L and U, that is det(A) = @11+++€nntii''*Unn. ¢ Since L is. lower triangular
and invertible it is row equivalent to the identity matrix and can be reduced to J using only replacement
operations.

5. Let 21,%2,...,@7 be defined as in the figure. The total flows in and out of the entire network and in and
out each intersection are given in the table.

Equating the total flows in and out gives a linear system with solution x = 1000-—24—~27, 29 = 800~26, 23 =
1000 — a4 +g ~ &7, "5 = 800 + 4g — @7, with v4,26, and «7 free variables. Since the network consists of one
way streets, the individual flows are nonnegative. As a sample solution let, rq = 200,2¢ = 300,27 = 100,
then 7 = 700, v2 = 500, v3 = 1000, vs = 500.

Balancing all in and out flows generates the linear system
21 +600 + ag + 200+ 500 = 100+ 400 + xg + 500 + 300

The set of solutions is given by 21 = 500 — a7,a = 800 — 27,03 = 700,24 = 200+ 27,23 = 200,26 =
400 ++ 27 + ag, %7,2g € R. In order to-have all positive flows, for example, let x7 = 300 and xg = 200, so
a1 == 200, % = 500,23 = 700,24 = 500, vy = 200, 2g = 100.
7, Equating total flows in and out gives the linear system

with solution x1 = 150 ~ x4, 9 = 50 — a4 — a5, and 23 = 50+24 +45. Letting, for example, v4 = 5 = 20
gives the particular solution 7, = 130, %2 = 10,73 = 90.
8. The set, of solutions is given by v1 = 200+ %g, vq = —100+ 7g, 03 = 100+, 24 = %g, U5 = 150+ 08,26 =
—150 + vg, v7 = 100 + ag, 2g € R. If wg > 150, then all the flows will remain positive.
9. If 21,2,23, and xq denote the number of grams required from each of the four food groups, then the
specifications yleld the linear system

The solution is v1 = 1.4, 29 = 3.2, 03 = 1.6, 04 = 6.2,
10. If x1,%2, and vg denote the number of grams required from each of the three food groups, then the
specifications yield the linear system
20021 + 400a2 + 30023 = 2400
