How can you write any rate as a unit rate?

Mathematics

The problem must have two terms, and you must be asked to determine how much of one term exists per unit of the other term. Rewrite the data as a division problem. The first term in the problem—the amount you are trying to calculate per unit—will become the numerator (top number). The second term—the unit—will become the denominator (bottom number). Divide both values by the denominator. To find the unit rate, simply solve the newly written division problem. Doing so will reduce the denominator to "1." Write the solution. You should now have your final answer ready.

Answer:When rates are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 2 feet per second or 5 miles per hour, they are called unit rates. If you have a multiple-unit rate such as 120 students for every 3 buses, and want to find the single-unit rate, write a ratio equal to the multiple-unit rate with 1 as the second term.

Point A is the midpoint of side XZ and point B is the
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

Option (2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete; here is the complete question.

Point A is the midpoint of side XZ and point B is the  midpoint of side YZ.

Triangle XYZ is cut by line segment AB. Point A is the midpoint of side XZ and point B is the midpoint of side YZ. The length of XY is (5x - 7), the length of AB is (x + 1), and the lengths of XA and ZA are (2x - 2). The lengths of YB and BZ are congruent.

What is AX ?

2 units

4 units

6 units

8 units

From the figure attached,

XYZ is a triangle having A and B as the midpoints of the sides XZ and YZ.

By the theorem of midpoints,

AB = \frac{1}{2}\text{(XY)}

Since AB = (x + 1) and XY = (5x - 7)

(x + 1) = \frac{1}{2}(5x-7)

2x + 2 = 5x - 7

5x - 2x = 2 + 7

3x = 9

x = 3

Therefore, side AB = 3 + 1 = 4 units

Side XY = (5x - 7)

             = 15 - 7

             = 8 units

Side XA = 2(x - 1)

              = 4 units

Therefore, Option (2) will be the answer.

Sally and Karl work at different jobs. Sally earns $7 per hour and Karl earns $5 per hour. They each earn the same amount per we
Lisa [10]

Answer:

Karl works 7 hours a week

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine total amount that Sally earns

Total amount Sally earns=rate per hour×number of hours worked(h)

where;

Rate per hour=$7 per hour

Number of hours worked=h

Replacing;

Total amount Sally earns=(7×h)=7 h

Step 2: Determine total amount Karl earns

Total amount Karl earns=rate per hour×number of hours worked

where;

rate per hour=$5

number of hours worked=2 more than Sally=h+2

replacing;

Total amount Karl earns=5(h+2)

Step 3: Equate Sally's total earnings to Karl's total earnings and solve for h

7 h=5(h+2)

7 h=5 h+10

7 h-5 h=10

2 h=10

h=10/2

h=5

Karl works (h+2) hours=(5+2)= 7 hours

Karl works 7 hours a week
