Question: A color on a computer screen is encoded by three number \((R, G, B)\) that list the amounts of energy an electron gun must transmit to red, green, and blue phosphor dots on the computer screen. (A fourth number specifies the luminance or intensity of the color.) The actual color a viewer sees on a screen is influenced by a specific type and amount of phosphors on the screen. So each computer screen manufacturer must convert between the (R, G, B) data and an international CIE standard for color, which uses three primary colors, called \(X\), \(Y\), and \(Z\). A typical conversion for short-persistence phosphors is

\[\left[\begin{array}{lll} .61 & .29 & .150 \\ .35 & .59 & .063 \\ 04 & .12 & .787 \end{array}\right]\left[\begin{array}{l} R \\ G \\ B \end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{l} X \\ Y \\ Z \end{array}\right]\]

A computer program will send a stream of color information to the screen, using standard CIE data \((X, Y, Z)\). Find the equation that converts these data to the \((R, G, B)\) data needed for the screen's electron gun. Write a sentence explaining what your answer represents within the context of the problem.
