The unit rate is 3 apples per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit rate will be calculated by dividing the total number of apples by the time

Given

Total number of apples = 15

Time = 5 min

So, The unit rate will be:

$Unit\ rate=\frac{Apples}{Time}\\=\frac{15}{5}\\=3\ apples\ per\ min$

Hence,

The unit rate is 3 apples per minute

A jar is filled with only dimes and quarters. The jar contains a total of 60 coins and the value of the jar is $11.25. How many

inessss [21]

Answer:

35 quarters

Step-by-step explanation:

This situation has two unknowns - the total number of dimes and the total number of quarters. Because we have two unknowns, we will write a system of equations with two equations using the two unknowns.

$d+q=60$ is an equation representing the total number of coins
$0.10d+0.25q=11.25$ is an equation representing the total value in money based on the number of coin. 0.10 and 0.25 come from the value of a dime and quarter individually.

We write the first equation in terms of q by subtracting it across the equal sign to get $d=60-q$ . We now substitute this for d in the second equation.

$0.10(60-q)+0.25q=11.25\\6-0.10q+0.25q=11.25\\6+0.15q=11.25$

After simplifying, we subtract 6 across and divide by the coefficient of q.

$6+0.15q=11.25\\0.15q=5.25\\q=35$

We now know of the 60 coins that 35 are quarters. To find the total value of the quarters, we multiply 35 by 0.25 and find 8.75.
