If A= 0&0 4&0 , find A^ 16 . - Vidyadip

Question

If $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix},$ find $A^{16}$.

✓

Answer

Given,
$\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix}$
$ \text{A}^2=\text{A}\times\text{A}$
$ =\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\4&0\end{bmatrix}$
$ =\begin{bmatrix}0+0&0+0\\0+0&0+0\end{bmatrix}$
$=\begin{bmatrix}0&0\\0&0\end{bmatrix}$
$=0$
$ \text{A}^4=\text{A}^2\times\text{A}^2$
$=0\times0$
$=0$
$ \text{A}^{16}=\text{A}^4\times\text{A}^4$
$=0\times0$
$=0$
So,
$A^{16}$ is a null matrix

There are two types of fertilizers $F_{1 }$ and $F_2. F_{1 }$ consists of $10\%$ nitrogen and $6\%$ phosphoric acid and $F_{2 }$ consists of $5\%$ nitrogen and $10\%$ phosphoric acid. After testing the soil conditions, a farmer finds the she needs atleast $14\ kg$ of nitrogen and $14\ kg$ of phosphoric acid for her crop. If $F_{1 }$ costs $Rs. 6/ kg$ and $F_{2 }$ costs $Rs. 5/ kg,$ determine how much of each type of fertilizer should be used so that the nutrient requirements are met at minimum cost. What is the minimum cost?
