Step-by-step explanation:
In one day, Joe consumes 530 calories by drinking 1 serving of juice, 2 servings of milk, and 1 soda. Darius consumes 370 calories by drinking 2 servings of juice and 1 serving of milk. Marian consumes 510 calories by drinking 3 servings of milk and 1 soda. Using matrices to solve, how many calories are in 1 serving of milk?
A. 90
B. 110
C. 130
D. 180
Answer:
Let x represent the amount of calories in 1 servings of juice, y represent the amount of calories in 1 servings of milk and z represent the amount of calories in 1 servings of Soda.
Joe consumption can be represented by:
x + 2y + z = 530 (1)
Darius consumption can be represented by:
2x + y = 370 (2)
Marian consumption can be represented by:
3y + z = 510 (3)
The equations can be represented in matrix form as:
The amount of calories in one serving of milk is 110 calories
