Respuesta :

Answer: 1,540 kilo calories

Explanation:

The energy that is supplied by the carbohydrates is 4 calories in one gram of carbohydrates.

The energy that is obtained by the protein is 4 calories per gram of protein. The fat provides 9 calories per gram of fat.

Alcohol provides 7 calories per gram of alcohol.

Hence, 250* 4= 1000 calories by carbohydrates, 50*4= 200 calories by protein and 30* 9= 270 calories by fat.

Alcohol = 10* 7= 70 calories by alcohol.

Total calories is 1540 kilo calories which is consumed by Carol for dinner.
