Suppose that in Example 2.27, 400 units of food A, 500 units of B, and 600 units of C are placed in the test tube each day and the data on daily food consumption by the bacteria (in units per day) are as shown in Table 2.7. How many bacteria of each strain can coexist in the test tube and consume all of the food?

Every $1 produced by the coal industry requires $0.30 of coal and $0.70 of steel. Every $1 produced by steel requires $0.80 of coal and $0.20 of steel. Find the annual production (output) of coal and steel if the total annual production is $20 million.arrow_forward
