Le Boulangerie, a bakery, sells four main items: sweet rolls, bread, cakes, and pies. The amount of each ingredient (in cups, except for eggs) required for these items is given by matrix A.
Suppose a day's orders consist of 20 dozen sweet rolls, 200 loaves of bread, 50 cakes, and 60 pies. Write the orders as a $1 \times 4$ matrix and, using matrix multiplication, write as a matrix the amount of each ingredient needed to fill the day's orders.
