X and Y can almost be any number and long as the statement 'equal to' is true the equation is correct.
Answer:
The 9 ounce box is the better deal, and Kyle will save 2 cents.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you should find how much 1 once would cost in the 9 ounce box.
Do 2.52 ÷ 9 = x
x = 0.28
This means that in the <u>9 ounce box, one ounce costs 28 cents</u>.
Now, find how much one once would cost in the 12 ounce box.
3.60 ÷ 12 = x
x = 0.30
This means that in the <u>12 ounce box, one ounce costs 30 cents</u>.
This means that the 9 ounce box is a better deal, because it costs less per ounce.
0.30 - 0.28 = 0.02. This means there is a 2 cent difference in their prices per ounce.
So, Kyle should choose the 9 ounce box, and he will save 2 cents per box.

One company wants $10 per 3.5 hours, so they want 10 / 3.5 ≈ 2,86 dollars per hour (after rounding to the closest hundreths).
Second company wants $1.25 per half an hour, so they want 2 * 1,25 = 2,50 dollars per hour.
The unit rate is 2,86:2,50
