ns. The correct option is B
Skew symmetric matrix
Since, A and B are symmetric ’ A = A' and B = B'

CASE STUDY
20. A diet is to contain 30 units of vitamin A, 40 Units of vitamin B and 20 units of vitamin C. Three types o
foods F1, F2 and F3 are available. One unit of Food E contains 3 units of vitamin A, 2 units of vitamín B
o
and 1 units of vitamin C. One unit of food F contains 1unit of vitamin A, 2 units of vitarmin B and 1 unit
vitamin C. One unit of food F3 contains 5 units of vitamin A, 3units of vitamin B and 2 units of vitamin C.
Based on the above information, answer the questions
(a) If the diet contains x units of Food F1, y units of Food F and z units of Food F3. Write the matrix equation
representing the above situation.
