Please help?? its unit rate so plz help tell me how to do it
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

1.2 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide the dollar count by the pound count.

So basically:

6/5

This gives you 1.2 dollars.

When you do unit rate, you just have to divide one value by the other value.

The value you divide by, and the value you divde, vary depending on what the question asks.

For instance, if this question asked what the pound count for 1 dollar would be, you would end up divide the 5 pounds by 6 dollars(5/6) instead of divideing the 6  dollars by 5 pounds like we did above(6/5).

Hope this helps!

Under her cell phone plan, Sarah pays a flat cost of $69 per month and $4 per gigabyte. She wants to keep her bill at $83.80 per
zalisa [80]

Using a linear function, it is found that Sarah can use 3.7 gigabytes while staying within her budget.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = mx + b

In which:

  • m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

Considering the flat cost as the y-intercept and the cost per gigabyte as the slope, the cost of using g gigabytes is:

C(g) = 4g + 69.

She wants to keep her bill at $83.80 per month, hence:

C(g) = 83.80

4g + 69 = 83.80

4g = 14.80

g = 14.80/4

g = 3.7.

Sarah can use 3.7 gigabytes while staying within her budget.
