Chen is bringing fruit and veggies to serve at an afternoon meeting. he spends a total of $28.70 on 5 pints of cut veggies and 7 pints of cut fruit. the food cost is modeled by the equation , where v represents the cost of one pint of cut veggies and f represents the cost of one pint of cut fruit. if the cost of each pint of fruit is $2.85, what is the approximate price of a pint of veggies? (round to the nearest cent.)

$1.75
$2.06
$2.39
$3.99

First Option

The approximate price of a pint of veggies is $1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

if v represents the cost of a pint of cut vegetables and f represents the cost of a pint of cut fruits then the equation that models the cost of "v" vegetables and "f" fruits is:

Where z represents the total cost of buying "v" vegetables and a "f" pints of fruits.

h represents the cost  of a pint of cut vegetables .

We know that the cost "z" of 5 vegetables pints and 7 fruits pints is $ 28.70

So:

We substitute these values into the equation and solve for h.

300pi

step-by-step explanation:

"it's not the heat, it's the humidity".   that's a partly valid phrase you may have heard in the summer, but it's actually both.   the heat index, also known as the apparent temperature, is what the temperature feels like to the human body when relative humidity is combined with the air temperature.   this has important considerations for the human body's comfort.   when the body gets too hot, it begins to perspire or sweat to cool itself off.   if the perspiration is not able to evaporate, the body cannot regulate its temperature.   evaporation is a cooling process.   when perspiration is evaporated off the body, it effectively reduces the body's temperature.   when the atmospheric moisture content (i.e. relative humidity) is high, the rate of perspiration from the body decreases.   in other words, the human body feels warmer in humid conditions.   the opposite is true when the relative humidity decreases because the rate of perspiration increases.   the body actually feels cooler in arid conditions.   there is direct relationship between the air temperature and relative humidity and the heat index, meaning as the air temperature and relative humidity increase (decrease), the heat index increases (decreases).
