The unit rate in the equation is 20.
Option C) is the correct answer.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
Step 1 :
In the given equation y = 20x
where,
x ⇒ total number of hours for tutoring
20 ⇒ the cost per hour of tutoring
y ⇒ the total cost for total hours of tutoring
Step 2 :
Unit rate refers to the value per hour.
Here, the cost for 1 hour of tutoring is $20.
∴ The unit rate is $20 per hour of tutoring.
Check the slope between the moving points
<span>slope between (–6, –1) & (–3, 2) = 1 </span>
<span>slope between (-3, 2) & (–1, 4) = 1 </span>
<span>slope between (-1, 4) & (2, 7) = 1 </span>
<span>the points are collinear and make an angle of 45 degrees with the x-axis </span>
<span>we can have an equation of a line passing through (-6,-1) and slope 1 as </span>
<span>(y + 1) = 1(x + 6) </span>
<span>y = x + 5 is your linear model mostly</span>
