The purpose of this set of exercises is to provide examples of vector equations which result from balancing nutrients in a diet. Section 1.10 shows how use a vector equation to model a diet with a specified nutritional intake. Each vector a, lists the nutrient composition of one unit (usually 100 grams) of foodstuff, and the corresponding weight is the variable that represents the amount (number of units) of that foodstuff to be used in the diet. The vector b lists the amount of each nutrient that must be in the diet. Table 2 lists the nutritional value of many foods found in a typical kitchen. The nutrients are given per 100 grams of foodstuff. This data is taken from the USDA Nutrient Database for Standard Reference available at the United States Department of Agriculture website, www.ars.usda.gov. The columns represent respectively the following foodstuffs: beef, brussels sprouts, carrots, chicken soup, egg, feta cheese, grapefruit, lentils, lettuce, milk, mushrooms, oil, onion, rice, salad dressing, salmon, soy sauce, spinach, tomato, and vanilla ice cream. Table 1 gives the standard serving size for each of these foodstuffs, and also gives a key to the columns in Table 2.

Compute (by hand) the amount of carbohydrates in each of the following dishes, and determine which would be better for such a dieter to choose. You will first need to use Table 1 to convert the kitchen measures into 100 gram units, then use Table 2 to find the amount of carbohydrates in each ingredient. Spinach omelet: 1/4 cup spinach, 2 eggs, 1/8 cup milk, 1/2 Tbsp. oil Greek salad: 1 cup lettuce, 1/4 cup feta cheese, 1/2 of a tomato, 1/8 cup salad dressing 2. To make a stir fry, fry beef and onions in a wok with oil, and top it with soy sauce. a) You would like to make a stir fry with a total of 6 g carbohydrates, 50 g protein, and 3.5 mg vitamin C, and you'd like this dish to contain only 575 calories. Use Table 2 to set up a matrix equation which could be used to determine whether it is possible to make such a stir fry. Describe the steps you take to produce the vectors in the equation. b) Find a precise recipe for the stir fry in part a). Convert your amounts to common kitchen measures using Table 1. 3.

You will first need to use Table 1 to convert the kitchen measures into 100 gram units, then use Table 2 to find the amount of carbohydrates in each ingredient. Spinach omelet: 1/4 cup spinach, 2 eggs, 1/8 cup milk, 1/2 Tbsp. oil Greek salad: 1 cup lettuce, 1/4 cup feta cheese, 1/2 of a tomato, 1/8 cup salad dressing 2. To make a stir fry, fry beef and onions in a wok with oil, and top it with soy sauce. a) You would like to make a stir fry with a total of 6 g carbohydrates, 50 g protein, and 3.5 mg vitamin C, and you'd like this dish to contain only 575 calories. Use Table 2 to set up a matrix equation which could be used to determine whether it is possible to make such a stir fry. Describe the steps you take to produce the vectors in the equation. b) Find a precise recipe for the stir fry in part a). Convert your amounts to common kitchen measures using Table 1. 3. Table 2 has been incorporated into the matrix A in the M-file diet.m accompanying this file. 21 201 23 2.9 0.85 3.5 7 3.1 1.2 0.5 1.2 27 20 15 4 12 0 0 295 211 56 30 43 367 317 45 101 61.8 129 35 215 39 43 73 152 263 30 116 14 61.44 25 884 38 130 448.8 149 60 26 2.55 1.03 5.3 10.33 14.2 0.55 9.02 1.62 3.29 2.09 0 1.16 2.69 0 25.56 10.51 11.5 0.51 0.19 2.5 11.44 21.3 0.1 0.38 0.2 3.34 0.42 100 0.16 0.28 50.1 4.42 0.1 0.26 0.33 11 0 8.6 10.1 7.1 1.04 4.09 7.68 20.14 2.37 4.66 4.65 0 8.63 28.17 2.5 0 5.57 3.75 4.64 23.6 36 27 10 42 492.5 11 19 36 119.4 5 0.18 20 10 0 17 20 136 5 128 0.6 1.19 0.65 0.12 3.33 1.1 0.05 1.24 0.38 0.22 0 0.99 2.38 3.57 0.45 0.09 9 19.2 8 36 6 13.44 10 0.01 10 44 148 337 9 180 45 93.4 104 1.22 33 323 369 290 151.5 370 0 157 69 21 35 354 270 1116 0 2 8 49 4 0.04 3 1 5290 0.33 0.2 0.4 0.92 2.88 0.07 1.27 0.25 0.38 0.73 0.06 0.19 0.49 0.143 0.083 0.047 0.1 0.013 0.032 0.044 0.251 0.037 0.01 0.492 0 0.06 0.069 0 62 9.3 000 38.1 1.5 24 0.94 3.5 0 6.4 0.11 0.107 0.097 0.03 0.044 0.154 0.034 0.169 0.1 0.038 0.102 0 0.042 0.163 0.25 0.08 0.059 0.07 0.399 0.844 0.02 0.073 0.1 0.162 0.449 0 0.02 0.013 4.63 0.607 0.928 1.8 0.058 0.991 0.191 1.06 0.5 0.084 4.116 0 0.148 1.476 0.34 0.252 0.197 15 0.934 0.967 0.283 0.638 0.17 0.314 2.2 0 0.106 0.39 0.4 0.178 147 0.02 0.109 0.424 0.042 0.178 0.047 0.042 0.097 0 0.116 0.093 2.27 0 0 0.13 0.7 1.69 000 0.357 0 0 0 0 0 719 28129 509 654 447 259 8 2600 126 0 0 0 0 0 33 40 87 11 14 130 56 24 105 7.5 414 212 466 222 199 0.5 86 5586 70 9 80 0 0.71 0.43 0.76 0.09 0.69 0 0.099 0.135 0.174 0.074 0.023 0 0 0 9.8 19.1 0.6 0 0.196 0.059 0.095 0.059 0.041 0 0.073 0.152 0.236 0.048 0.24 0 8.526 3.951 0.49 0.628 0.116 0 0.865 0.376 0.145 0.247 0.581 0 0.231 0.20.242 0.08 0.048 0 3.46 00 0 0.39 0 136 0 8190 623 409 Application Project: Diet Problems What does the jth column in this matrix represent? Which entry in this matrix tells you how much vitamin C is found in 100 g of vanilla ice cream? 4. A particularly math-savvy sumo wrestler wanted to adhere to a strict diet to maintain his weight and strength. Table 3 lists his desired nutritional intake for one day. The entries in Table 3 are stored in the vector v which is in the M-file diet.m. Using Table 2 he was able to decide on an optimal diet to give him this combination of nutrients. How much of each of the above foods were in his diet?

The United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) provides Recommended Daily Values for use on food labels. Table 4 gives the FDA's recommendations, which are also stored in the vector v2 which is in the accompanying M-file diet.m.
