What are systems of equations?

This is a group of equations which may have none, one or more solutions.

From the question, we have the following system of equations

[tex]13x+8y=68[/tex]

[tex]145x+330y=1240[/tex]

Where:

x represents the grams of fats, and y represents the number of calories

Next, we plot the graph of both equations (see attachment)

From the attachment, the solution to the system is:

(x,y) = (4,2)

Hence, she should use 4 grams of fat, and 2 calories per half cup serving
