A martial arts practitioner wants to build a prefight meal. She knows she will need approximately 95g of​ fat, 190g of protein and 150g of carbohydrates. Each ounce of food I contains 3g of​ fat, 5g of protein and 4g of carbohydrates. Each ounce of food II contains 2g of​ fat, 10g of protein and 9g of carbohydrates. Each ounce of food III contains 6g of​ fat, 8g of protein and 7g of carbohydrates. Find the augmented matrix of the corresponding linear system that solves for amount of food I​ (x), amount of food II​ (y), and amount of food III​ (z).
