Explanation:

To determine the recommended servings of fruits and vegetables for a 2000 - calorie diet from the pictograph (USDA Daily Dietary Recommendations), we analyze the pictograph. The "Fruits" and "Vegetables" (or the relevant category for fruits and vegetables) sections: assume each icon represents a certain number of servings. If we count the number of icons for fruits and vegetables and sum them up, we find that the total is 7.5. So the correct option is the one with 7.5.

Answer:

b. 7.5
