A glass of skim milk supplies 0.1 mg of iron, 8.5 g of protein, and 1 g of carbohydrates. A quarter pound of lean red meat provi
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

glasses of milk=4

quatar pounds servings of meat =5

two slices of whole grains bread =8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let m= milk

r=meat

b=bread

0.1m+3.4r+2.2b=35 (1)

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (2)

m+20r+12b=200 (3)

Multiply (1) by 85 and (2) by 1

8.5m+289r+187b=2,975 (4)

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (5)

Subtract (5) from (4)

267r+177b=2,751 (6)

Recall,

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (2)

m+20r+12b=200 (3)

Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 8.5

8.5m+22r+10b=224 (7)

8.5m+170r+102b=1700 (8)

Subtract (7) from (8)

148r+92b=1,476 (9)

Recall,

267r+177b=2,751 (6) and

148r+92b=1,476 (9)

Multiply (6) by 148 and (9) by 267

26196b=407,148 (10)

24564b=394,092 (11)

Subtract (11) from (10)

1,632b=13,056

Divide both sides by 1,632

b=13,056/1,632

b=8

Substitute the value of b in (9)

148r+92b=1,476 (9)

148r+92(8)=1,476

148r+736=1,476

148r=1,476-736

148r=740

Divide both sides by 148

r=740/148

r= 5

Substitute the value of b and r in (1)

0.1m+3.4r+2.2b=35 (1)

0.1m+3.4(5)+2.2(8)=35

0.1m+17+17.6=35

0.1m+34.6=35

0.1m=35-34.6

0.1m=0.4

Divide both sides by 0.1

m=0.4/0.1

m=4

4 glasses of milk, 5 quatar pounds servings of meat and 8 two slices of whole grains bread will supply the required nutrients.

A box contains 9 green balls, 16 red balls, 9 white balls, and 6 pink balls. What is the probability of drawing a pink ball out
Viefleur [7K]
This is an example of "classical probability". Whenever the probability of all events is the same, then the probability is calculated by dividing the number of "favorable events" of total events.

For this problem, the total number of events is the total number of balls, it is 40. The number of favorable events it the number of pink balls, it is 6.

So, the answer is 6/40, which can be written as 3/20.
