QUESTION:
What is the best order to form the product ABCD if A, B, C. and D are matrices with dimensions 30 × 10. 10 × 40. 40 × 50. and 50 × 30, respectively?.
ANSWER:Solution Step 1 In this problem, we have to find the best order to form the product ABCD where A, B, C, and D are the matrices. Let us assume that a matrix of order 30 × 10, matrix B of order 10 × 40, matrix C of order 40 × 50 and matrix D of order 50 × 30 respectively. So, we have to use the multiplication property of matrices a × b and b × c is . Hence, we have few achievable condition to find the best order to form the product ABCD.A(BC)D(AD)(BC)(AB)(CD)(AC)(BD)B(AB)D((AB)C)D
