Answer:

$5x-9=2x+23$

Step-by-step explanation:

"Five times a number" is '5x'.

"Decreased by nine is" '-9'.

"Is equal to" is '='.

"Twice the number" is '2x'.

"Increased by 23" is '+ 23'.

Put them together: 5x-9=2x+23

5x - 9 = 2x + 23 should be the correct answer.

A 14-ounce box of cereal sells for $2.10. What is the unit rate?

Ahat [919]

Answer:

The unit rate is equal to $0.15\frac{\$}{ounce}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The unit rate is the ratio of two measurements in which the second term is equal to one

In this problem to find the unit rate, divide the total cost of cereal by the total weight of cereal

$\frac{2.10}{14}\frac{\$}{ounces} =0.15\frac{\$}{ounce}$

therefore

The unit rate is equal to $0.15\frac{\$}{ounce}$
