Rate is an expression for a change of some unit per unit of time. For this problem, we find the rate of change of the price by a simple equation which is expressed as: 

Rate = change in price / change in time
Rate = ($1.20/lb - $0.90/lb) / 5 yrs - 0
Rate = $0.06 per lb per year

Thus, the answer is B.

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

A.) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First change the equation to 2 + ( - 8x ) = -6 so it’s easier to read

Take away 2 from both sides

So now you have -8x = -8

Divide both sides by -8 so you get positive x and 1

x = 1
