In a large engineering system, a building is being designed and energy efficiency is a major concern. To ensure the efficiency of heating and cooling, the air conditioning system must be sized according to the specific needs of the building. The engineer in charge of the project must solve a system of linear equations to determine the ideal operating temperatures. Let the following be the system of equations that models the thermal behavior of the building: 2x + y + 3z = 10, 4x - 6y + 8z = 5, 3x + 7y + 5z = 18. The engineer must rewrite this system of equations in the matrix form Ax = b, where A is the matrix of coefficients, x is the vector of unknowns, and b is the vector of constant terms.

In Ana's lunchbox, she has 8 green grapes and 6 purple grapes. In João's lunchbox, he has 4 grapes of each color. If they combine all the grapes and divide them equally between them, who will have more grapes, Ana or João? Write two different addition equations that result in the same total number of grapes to help Ana and João divide the grapes fairly.
