Solution
We are given that A professor needs help from 3 student helpers to complete 4 tasks.
The first task is grading;
the second is scanning;
the third is copying, and
the fourth is organizing student portfolios.
The matrix is,
XA1 +XA2 + XA3 + XA4 = 0
XA1 +XA2 + XA3 + XA4 = 1
XA1 +XA2 + XA3 + XA4 1
XA1 +XA2 + XA3 + XA4 0

| student | A | 90 | 50 | 40 | 20 |
| B | 120 | 60 | 30 | 50 | |
| C | 110 | 60 | 50 | 70 |
