In one day, Joe consumes 530 calories by drinking 1 serving of juice, 2 servings of milk, and 1 soda. Darius consumes 370 calori
es 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
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.
for answer b, if you subtract 330 from 510 you get soda = 180 cal. then if you subtract 110 from 370 you get 260, and 260 divided by two (he consumed 2 juice) equals 130.
so you have soda = 180 cal and juice = 130 cal
if you plug it into joe's calorie intake you do 130 (1 serving of juice) + 180 (1 serving of soda) and + 220 (two servings of milk) you get 530 which is joe's total calorie intake in liquids, so B (110) is correct
