  1. 11 half cups of beans and 4 three-ounce helpings of shrimp

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent servings of green beans and shrimp, respectively. Then the number of grams of carbohydrate in the meal is ...

  7x +9y = 113

And the number of calories in the meal is ...

  30x +190y = 1090

The solution to these equations can be found by your favorite method to be ...

  (x, y) = (11, 4)

The appropriate number of servings is ...
