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.

it would take 5 hours i think idk i'm not that good at math.can you me with my questions i need asap.

answer: bea's uncle is 25 years old.

step-by-step explanation:

given the equation , we can say that the variable "x" represents the age of bea's uncle. then to find his age, we need to solve for "x":

we must add 15 to both sides of the equation:

now we need to divide both sides of the equation by 3:

therefore, we can conclude that bea's uncle is 25 years old.
