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 5v + 7f = 28.70, 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.)

The answer would be $1.75 (Rounded off to the nearest cent).

Substitute the given cost of each pint of fruit to the equation. Transpose and simplify, to get the price of a pint of veggies.
Given: <span>5v + 7f = 28.70; f = $2.85
Solution: </span><span>5v + 7(2.85) = 28.70
                </span><span>5v + 19.95 = 28.70
                5v = 8.75
                  v = 1.75</span>

The nutrition fact sheet at a fast food restaurant says a small portion of chicken nuggets contain 190 calories, and 114 calorie
PIT_PIT [208]
The percent of total calories from fat is 60%

Step-by-step work:

190 calories is the total amount of calories in the chicken nuggets and 114 calories are from fat so you could write that as:

114/190

now remember that a “/“ also means divide, so divide the fraction:

114/190 = 0.6

0.6 is the decimal form of 114/190

then since percentages are out of 100, you multiply it by 100:

0.6 • 100 = 60

and 60% is your final answer!
