Step 1: Identify the given matrices and vector.

We are given the technology matrix \(A\), and external demand vector \(D\): \[A=\left[\begin{array}{lll} 0.5 & 0.1 & 0 \\\ 0 & 0.5 & 0.1 \\\ 0 & 0 & 0.5 \end{array}\right], D=\left[\begin{array}{l} 3,000 \\\ 3,800 \\\ 2,000 \end{array}\right]\]

Step 2: Calculate the matrix (I - A).

Here \(I\) represents the identity matrix. The size of the identity matrix should match the size of the technology matrix A. Since A is a 3x3 matrix, the identity matrix is also a 3x3 matrix: \[I = \left[\begin{array}{lll} 1 & 0 & 0 \\ 0 & 1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0 & 1 \end{array}\right]\] Now, let's calculate \((I - A)\): \[(I - A) = \left[\begin{array}{lll} 1-0.5 & 0-0.1 & 0, \\ 0 & 1-0.5 & 0-0.1 \\ 0 & 0 & 1-0.5 \end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{lll} 0.5 & -0.1 & 0 \\ 0 & 0.5 & -0.1 \\ 0 & 0 & 0.5 \end{array}\right]\]

Step 3: Find the inverse of (I - A).

Now we need to find the inverse of the matrix \((I - A)\), denoted as \((I - A)^{-1}\). We can use the formula for the inverse of a 3x3 matrix or use software tools such as MATLAB or Python to compute the inverse. In this case, we find: \[(I - A)^{-1}= \left[\begin{array}{ccc} 2 & 0.4 & 0.08 \\ 0 & 2 & 0.4 \\ 0 & 0 & 2 \end{array}\right]\]

Step 4: Calculate X by multiplying (I - A)^{-1} with D.

Finally, let's calculate the production vector X by multiplying \((I - A)^{-1}\) with D: \[X = (I - A)^{-1} D = \left[\begin{array}{ccc} 2 & 0.4 & 0.08 \\ 0 & 2 & 0.4 \\ 0 & 0 & 2 \end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{c} 3,000 \\ 3,800 \\ 2,000 \end{array}\right]\] \[X = \left[\begin{array}{c} 6,000 + 1,520 + 160 \\ 0 + 7,600 + 800 \\ 0 + 0 + 4,000 \end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{c} 7,680 \\ 8,400 \\ 4,000 \end{array}\right]\] The production vector X is found to be: \[X=\left[\begin{array}{l} 7,680 \\ 8,400 \\ 4,000 \end{array}\right]\]
