3. A small town has three primary industries: a copper mine, a railroad, and an electric power plant. To produce $1 of copper, the copper mine uses $0.20 of copper, $0.10 of rail transportation, and $0.20 of electric power. To provide $1 of transportation, the railroad uses $0.10 of copper, $0.10 of rail transportation, and $0.40 of electric power. To provide $1 of electric power, the electric utility uses $0.20 of copper, $0.20 of rail transportation, and $0.30 of electric power. Suppose that during the year there is an outside demand of $1.2 million for copper, $0.8 million for rail transportation, and $1.5 million for electric power. How much should each industry produce to satisfy the demands? First, we write down the matrix as copper 0.20 C = 0.10 0.20 Then rail 0.10 0.10 0.40 elec 0.20 copper 0.20 rail 0.30 elec

4. A small economic system consists of two industries: coal and steel. Suppose that to produce $1.00 worth of coal, the coal industry uses $0.10 of coal and $0.80 of steel. Suppose also that to produce $1.00 worth of steel, the steel industry uses $0.10 of its own product and $0.20 of coal. Find the consumption matrix C for this system. For the demand vector 10, 000 coal d= 30, 000 steel solve the equation x C = d for x. That is, nd a production vector x such that x is met, without any surplus. the outside demand d

Thus, we need to produce $20,000 of coal and $40,000 of steel if we want to have $10,000 of coal and $30,000 of steel left over to sell, at the end of production.
5. An industrial system has only a Fuel industry and a Machines industry. To produce $1.00 worth of fuel, the fuel industry uses $0.30 of its own product and $0.40 worth of machines. To produce $1.00 worth of machines, the machine industry consumes $0.20 of its own product, and $0.40 of fuel. Find the consumption matrix C for this system. If the external demand for fuel and machines is given by d= 50, 000 30, 000 Fuel Machines
nd a production vector x such that the outside demand d is met, without any surplus. Following the same steps as the other problems, we obtain x = (I C)1 d = 2 1 1 1.75 50000 30000 = 130000 102500
Thus, we need to produce $130,000 of fuel and $102,500 of machines if we want to have $50,000 of fuel and $30,000 of machines left over to sell, at the end of production.

An remote city has an industrial system consisting of Farmers, Carpenters, and Tailors. The tailors consume $0.40 worth of the clothes and $0.20 worth of food, for every $1.00 of clothes they produce, but they do all their work by hand, so they use no tools. The farmers eat $0.40 of every $1.00 worth of food that they produce. In addition, they require $0.20 worth of tools for working the elds, and $0.20 worth of clothing. For every $1.00 worth of tools built by the carpenters, they eat $0.40 of food, use $0.20 worth of clothes, and require $0.20 of tools for further production. What is the consumption matrix for this system? How much of each good needs to be produced in order to meet an external demand of $5,000 in clothes, $2,000 in food, and $8,000 in tools1.
