Score: 0 of 1 pt 10 of 10 (9 complete)> HW Score: 90%, 9 of 10 pts Life Sci 3.3.23 Question Help A dietician is planning a snack package of fruit and nuts. Each ounce of fruit will supply zero units of protein, 2 units of carbohydrates, and 1 unit of fat, and will contain 18 calories. Each ounce of nuts will supply 3 units of protein, 1 unit of carbohydrate, and 2 units of fat, and will contain 28 calories. Every package must provide at least 9 units of protein, at least 8 units of carbohydrates, and no more than 9 units of fat. What is the least number of calories possible in a package? (Type an integer or a decimal.)

Explanation / Answer

For atleast 9 units of protein, 3 nuts must be consumed.

3nuts

3 fruits

Protein = 0*3+ 3*3=9

Carbohydrates = 2*3+1*3=9

Fat=1*3+2*3=9

Least number of calorie possible = 3*18+3*28= 138 calories.
