Exam 12: Vectors and Matrices

If and , then what is ?

A snow cone stand sells three sizes of snow cones: small, medium, and large. Let give the number of each type of cone sold in one day. Let give the price (in dollars) charged for each size of snow cone, give the cost (also in dollars) of making each size of snow cone, and give the maximum number of each size that can be sold (because of the number of each size cup on hand.) What is the total number of cups left in the stand at the end of the day?

A gun mounted on a train points vertically upward. The train moves horizontally due east at 80 mph and the gun fires a bullet with a muzzle velocity of 80 mph. The speed and direction of the bullet relative to the ground is _______ mph toward the east at ______ to the horizontal. Round the first answer to 2 decimal places.
