Answer:

unit price = $0.4825 per pair of socks

Explanation:

Hello

I think I can help you with this

the unit rate is the price that you pay for an unit of the product , in this case the product is a pair of socks.

it is possible to find this value if the total price is divided by the total of productos


unit rate=(total\ paid)/(number\ of\ products)

Step 1

Let

total paid: $5.79

number of products :12 pairs

step 2

put the values into the equation


unit\ rate=(total paid)/(number\ of\ products)\\unit\ rate=(5.79\ usd)/(12\ pairs)\\\unit\ rate=0.4825 (usd)/(pair) \\

unit price = $0.4825 per pair of socks

Have a great day
