Question

A rate compares two types of measurements. Many grocery stores list unit rates for products on their shelves. If a 16oz can of green beans costs $.89, what is its unit rate? How is a unit rate different from a rate? Explain your solution process

Answer 1

Answer:

38.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets say, first number = x

Second number = 3x+7

Total = 49

(x)+(3x+7)= 49

4x+7 = 49

4x = 42

x = 42/4

x= 10.5

x= 10.5

3x+7 = 3(10.5)+7 = 38.5

Hope this helps!!
