Question 349961
Solve using Gauss-Jordan Elimination: As the school psychologist, you are consulting with the staff nutritionist about one of your student's low energy and propensity for minor illness. the nutritionist has suggested a daily routine of 350 units of vitamin C, 4200 units of Vitamin A, and 400 units of Vitamin D. 
She also recommends the following sources of these vitamins:
------- 
Megadose Supra contains 50 units of C, 1000 units of A, and 100 units of D per capsule. 
-------
Crazy Caps contains 100 units of C, 200 units of A, and 100 units of D. 
-------
Formula I contains 50 units of C, 500 units of A and no Vitamin D per capsule.

How many of each capsule should the student take to get the recommended dosages?
===============
Equations:
Vitamin C equation: 50M + 100C + 50F = 350
Vitamin A equation: 1000M + 200C + 500F = 4200
Vitamin D equation: 100M + 100C + 0F = 400
-----------------------------------------------------
Solve the system of equation using Gauss-Jordan
---
I get:
M = 3
C = 1
F = 2
