Accepted Answer

Welcome back everyone. The energy values of carbohydrates, fats and proteins are four kg cows per gram, nine kg cows per gram and for kill a cow's program respectively. If the recommended kilocalorie is 2000 kg cals per day For someone trying to maintain their weight. Will they be able to achieve this? With the following daily diet? For breakfast? They have one large egg which consists of 6g of fat And six g of protein. They have also one baked potato Which has 23 g of carbohydrates and three g of protein. Then for lunch, the person has one medium banana Which has 26 g of carbohydrates and one g of protein. They also have one cup of nonfat milk which has 12 g of carbohydrates and nine g of protein. And then they have three oz of ground beef which has 14 g of fat And 22 g of protein. And then last, they have three oz of Broccoli Which has four g of carbohydrates and three g of protein. And then we move on to their dinner which consists of three ounces of salmon, which has five g of fat and 16 g of protein And then one cup of carrots which has 11 g of carbohydrates and two g of protein. Let's begin by calculating the total energy for their breakfast that the person would gain. We can find this by taking our sum between our energy from our carbohydrates in our meal for breakfast, plus our energy from our fats from breakfast, plus our energy from our proteins in breakfast. And each of these units should all be in terms of Kilic for our total energy from this meal. So beginning with calculating the energy of our fats from breakfast, we're told that we have six g of fat from the one egg and we're going to multiply by our energy conversion factor from our prompt which relates nine kg cos per gram of fats. So canceling out our six g of fat and leaving us with units of kili cows and taking the product. We would have our total energy of fats being a value of 54 kg cows from our breakfast. Next, calculating our energy of carbs from breakfast, from the baked potato. Our individual has for breakfast, we have 23 g of carbs which we will multiply by our energy value of a carbohydrate given from our prompt as four kg cows per gram. So canceling out our units of grams and from our products, we get our total energy from carbs for breakfast being a total of 92 kg cows. And next, we need our total energy from protein for breakfast, Which is equal to the 6g of protein gained from the egg plus the three g of protein from the baked potato, which would give us nine g of protein multiplied by our conversion factor for protein in energy as four kg cows per gram. So canceling out our units of grams we're left with again, kill cows. And our total protein for breakfast would be a total of 36 kg. So calculating our total energy for breakfast will have be to for breakfast equal to 54 kg cos of fats Plus our 92 kg cos of carbs Plus our 36 kg cos of protein. And from this sum, we'll find our total energy equal to kg. So that takes care of energy from breakfast in total. Now we're going to need to calculate the total energy from the person's lunch diet in kili houses, which again is again the result of our sum of energy of our carbs, fats and proteins. So calculating our total energy of fats from the three ounces of ground beef our individual has for lunch. They will gain 14 g of fat according to the prompt which is multiplied by the energy of fats being nine kg per gram, canceling out grams and taking the product. We have total fat energy being 126 kg cows from the lunch. Then we have our energy from carbs for lunch Being the 26 g of carbs from the Banana, plus The 12 g of carbs that the individual has for lunch from nonfat milk, plus the four g of carbs that the individual has for lunch from the three ounces of broccoli that they consume. So taking the sum between these carbs, we would have 42 total grams of carbs. So taking our 42 g of carbs and multiplying by the energy of carbs given from the prompt as four Kilic cows per gram, canceling out our unit of grams. We're left with Kilic cows and from our product, we find our total carb energy being 168 kg cos. So now calculating our total protein energy from our person's lunch, We gain from the single cup of nonfat milk, 9g of protein added to our 22 g of protein gained from the three ounces of beef that they consume, Which is added to the three g of protein that they gain during lunch from the three oz of Broccoli that they consume. So from this sum, we find total protein in g as 34g of protein and multiplying our 34 g of protein by the energy value of protein. From our prompt being four kg cos per gram, canceling out grams. We take our product and we get energy of protein for lunch being 136 kg. So now calculating our total energy From the individual's lunch. We'll have the sum of our fats being and 26 kg cows. Plus I'm sorry, let's write in Kilic cows of fats plus our 168 kg cos of carbs that the person has during lunch and plus the 136 kg cos of protein that that person has for lunch will find total energy of that individual's lunch being 430 kg. And actually just to make a brief correction, I missed one of our units of protein from lunch where we would also include the one g of protein to our sum of protein which is coming from our medium banana. So we have one g of protein from the medium banana. And our sum of protein will actually be 35g total for lunch, which is going to change our energy calculation of protein being 35 times four kg cows per gram, canceling out grams will have 140 g of protein total In energy. And I'm sorry, this should be 140 kg. So going back to our total energy of lunch, we have instead killy cows of proteins added To our 126 kg of fats and our 168 kg of carbs, which would give us a total energy equal to 434 kg cos of energy for lunch total. And lastly, we need our total energy that the individual gains from their described dinner in kill cows. So beginning with the energy of fats From their dinner, they have three oz of salmon which consists of 16 g of protein. So 16 g grams from the salmon at dinner. And this will be added to the two g of protein gained from the carrots that they have for dinner, Taking the sum we would have 18 g of protein total multiplied by the energy value for fats being and apologies. This is our calculation for protein. So let's actually draw this in the right color. We have our energy of protein from dinner. Again being equal to 16 g of protein gained from the salmon that they eat plus the two g of protein that they gain from the carrots, giving us 18 g total of protein which we want to multiply by our energy conversion for protein. Given in the prompt as four kg per gram, canceling out grams. We have our total energy of protein gained from dinner being 72 kg cos of protein. Now calculating our total energy of fats that the individual gains from dinner. They are going to gain five g of fat from the salmon multiplied by our energy calculation for fats being nine kg cows per gram, canceling out grams and taking our product. We have 45 kg cows of fats from the individual's dinner. And lastly, we have energy of carbs to calculate for. So the energy of carbs that the individual gain gains from dinner would be 11 g of carbs from their serving of carrots. And we would multiply by our energy conversion for carbs being from our prompt four kg cows per gram, canceling out grams. We are left with kill cows and we'll find our total energy of carbs from dinner being 44 kg cos. Now calculating our total energy that the individual gains from their dinner. We would have 72 kg cos of protein Plus the 45 kg cows of fats Plus the 44 kg cows of carbs, which would result in our total energy equal to 161 kg cos of energy gained by their dinner. So now calculating total energy from breakfast plus lunch plus the individual's dinner, we would have 160 beginning with breakfast above, we found a value of 182 kg cows for breakfast. Plus our energy gained from lunch, which we calculated above as 434 kg cows for lunch. Plus the total energy gained from the individual's dinner being kg cows for dinner. We would find our total energy between breakfast, lunch and dinner being 777 kg cows total. And since this is significantly, we'll say since 777 kg is significantly less than the recommended daily kilocalorie intake being 2000 killer cows per day. We would confirm that therefore, the individual will lose weight and going back to our prompt. The key thing is that the individual would like to maintain their weight. So, based on our diet and the total energy that they gain from that diet, it's less than the recommended kilocalorie intake of 2000 kg per day. So our answer is no, the person won't be able to maintain their weight because they will lose weight based on the below diet. So our final answer is that they won't be able to maintain their weight. This is our final answer. I hope this made sense and let us know if you have any questions.
