Answer: The unit rate is $25
Step-by-step explanation: We know that the cost of cabin lodging is 25 dollars per lodger.
Then the equation y = 25x models this relation.
Here the cost is y, and the number of lodgers is x.
We want to find the unit rate.
The actual equation should be in dollars, and the number of lodgers is just a scalar number.
so the equation should be:
y = $25*x
Now, the unit rate is defined as the rate with 1 in the denominator, in this case, is the price for each unit of x (lodgers) so is the price per lodger.
We already know that the price per lodger is $25, so the unit rate is $25.
Answer:
do i supposed to add them all together
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright, we can turn the word problem at the beginning into an equation.
Let's represent oregano with "o" and peppercorns as "p".
o=p+17
Also, we know that the two added together are 253 pounds.
o+p=253
Since we know that o=p+17, let's substitute it into the second equation.
(p+17)+p=253
2p+17=253
-17 -17
2p=236
p=118
So, we have 118 pounds of peppercorns. (Although it's irrelevant to the second half of the equation, we also know we have 135 pounds of oregano)
Now, let's convert pounds to ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces.
So, multiply 118 by 16....
118*16=1888
So, you can make 1888 one-ounce bags of peppercorns.
This is not fair because both players have a 50-50 chance of getting their correct pattern.
