To start a partition problem, what equation do we need?

All the variables = 1

100

How do we know if we can add/subtract matrices together? How do we know that we can multiply?

Add/subtract need to be of the same dimension/size. To multiply their inside number of their dimensions have to be the same: (1x3)(3x1)

Why do we use matrices? Why are they helpful?

Matrices are helpful when we have a ton of equations with multiple variables, especially when substitution/elimination is not enough.

300

Rather than dividing we have to do what: (two things)


Multiply by a fraction, when solving matrices.

Multiply by the inverse, when trying to isolate a variable.

What is the equation to find a stable vector?

W(P-I) = 0

400

How do we read matrices/How do we know the dimensions?

We read them going down and across.

500

In the Demand Vector what does A, X, D, & I stand for?

A = technology matrix

X = production schedule

D = demand 

I = identity

500

What are the two equations for the Demand Vector?

(I-A)*X = D

X = ((I-A)^-1)*D

What is the difference between independent and disjoint?

Independent they can still have an intersection, but we can multiply the two subsets to get an intersection: AxB = n

With disjoint subsets, they DO NOT have an intersection.
