16. a) Using matrix method, solve the following simultaneous equations
3x-4y-1 =0
6x – 6y =5
b) Three girls went shopping and bought loaves of bread, cakes and packets of biscuits. Ann bought 2 loaves, 3 cakes and 6 packets of biscuits. Betty bought 3 loaves, 4 cakes and 5 packets of biscuits. Caroline bought 3 loaves, 6 cakes and 3 packets of biscuits.
i) Represent this information in matrix form.
ii) One loaf cost Shs3,500, one cake costs Shs500 and a packet of biscuits costs Shs2,000. Using matrix multiplication obtain the money spent by each girl. Hence, determine the total amount spent by the three girls.
17. A wholesaler wishes to transport at least 240 bags of sugar from the factory to his shop. He has a lorry that can carry 90 bags per trip and a pick-up that can carry 20bags per trip. The cost of each trip is Shs 50,000 for the lorry and Shs 15,000for a pick-up. He has Shs180,000 available to transport the sugar. The pick-up makes more trips than the lorry. If x is the number of trips to be made by the lorry and y the number of trips to be made by the pick-up;
a) Write down five inequalities to represent the given information
b) Represent the inequalities on a graph
c) Use the graph to find the possible number of trips to be made by the lorry and the pick-up. Hence find the minimum cost of transporting the bags of sugar.
