Question
Let $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}-1&1&-1\\3&-3&3\\5&5&5\end{bmatrix}$ and $\text{B}=\begin{bmatrix}0&4&3\\1&-3&-3\\-1&4&4\end{bmatrix},$ compute $A^2 - B^2.$

Answer

Given: $\text{A}=\begin{bmatrix}-1&1&-1\\3&-3&3\\5&5&5\end{bmatrix}$
Now,
$\text{A}^2=\text{AA}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix}-1&1&-1\\3&-3&3\\5&5&5\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}-1&1&-1\\3&-3&3\\5&5&5\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix}1+3-5&-1-3-5&1+3-5\\-3-9+15&3+9+15&-3-9+15\\-5+15+25&5-15+25&-5+15+25\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2=\begin{bmatrix}-1&-9&-1\\3&27&3\\35&15&35\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{B}^2=\text{BB}$
$\Rightarrow\text{B}^2=\begin{bmatrix}0&4&3\\1&-3&-3\\-1&4&4\end{bmatrix}\begin{bmatrix}0&4&3\\1&-3&-3\\-1&4&4\end{bmatrix}$
$ \Rightarrow\text{B}^2=\begin{bmatrix}0+4-3&0-12+12&0-12+12\\0-3+3&4+9-12&3+9-12\\0+4-4&-4-12+16&-3-12+16\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{B}^2=\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}$
$\text{A}^2-\text{B}^2$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2-\text{B}^2=\begin{bmatrix}-1&-9&-1\\3&27&3\\35&15&35\end{bmatrix}-\begin{bmatrix}1&0&0\\0&1&0\\0&0&1\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2-\text{B}^2=\begin{bmatrix}-1-1&-9-0&-1-0\\3-0&27-1&3-0\\35-0&15-0&35-1\end{bmatrix}$
$\Rightarrow\text{A}^2-\text{B}^2=\begin{bmatrix}-2&-1&-9\\3&26&3\\35&15&34\end{bmatrix}$

A small firm manufacturers items $A$ and $B.$ The total number of items $A$ and $B$ that it can manufacture in a day is at the most $24.$ Item A takes one hour to make while item $B$ takes only half an hour. The maximum time available per day is $16$ hours. If the profit on one unit of item $A$ be Rs. $300$ and one unit of item $B$ be Rs. $160,$ how many of each type of item be produced to maximize the profit? Solve the problem graphically.

A manufacturer has three machines installed in his factory. machines $I$ and $II$ are capable of being operated for at most $12$ hours whereas Machine $III$ must operate at least for $5$ hours a day. He produces only two items, each requiring the use of three machines. The number of hours required for producing one unit each of the items on the three machines is given in the following table:
Item Number of hours required by the machine
  $I$ $II$ $III$
$A$ $1$ $2$ $1$
$B$ $2$ $1$ $\frac{5}{4}$
