Answer:
a) 9/2 = 4.5, bushels per hour
b) (3, 10), (6, 20), (9, 30), (12, 40)
c) Shawn
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The line goes through the grid point (4, 18), so its slope is ...
18/4 = 4.5 . . . . slope = "unit rate"
The units are (y-units)/(x-units) = bushels/hour.
__
b) You have correctly filled in the table.
Time-values are 3, 6, 9, 12.
Fruit values are 10, 20, 30, 40.
The unit rate for Carla is ...
10 bu/(3 h) = 3 1/3 bushels/hour ≈ 3.33 bushels/hour
__
c) Shawn's unit rate of 4.5 bushels per hour is greater than Carla's unit rate of 3.33 bushels per hour. Shawn picked fruit at a faster pace.
