Concrete (used for side-walks) is a mixture of port-land cement, sand and gravel. A distributor has three batches available for contractors. Batch 1 contains cement, sand and gravel mixed in the proportions 13.4. Batch 2 has , miand Batch 3 has the proportion , 230 8 8 8 Given that a specific amount should be used from each batch to form a mixture of 10 cubic yards. Also, supposed that the mixture is to contain b = 2.3, b2 = 4.8, b3 = 2.9 cubic yards of port-land cement, gravel and sand respectively. (i) Formulate a system of linear equations for the ingredients. (ii) Write a Matlab code to solve the system equations. 10 10 Concrete (used for side-walks) is a mixture of port-land cement, sand and gravel.
