Final answer:

To find which equations have a greater unit rate, compare the coefficients of x, which represent the unit rate, to the rate shown in the table. For example, y = 5/7x has a unit rate of 5/7. Select all equations with a unit rate higher than that provided in the table.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which equations have a greater unit rate than the rate represented in the table, we need to look at the coefficients of x in each equation. The coefficient corresponds to the unit rate in a linear equation of the form y = mx, where m is the unit rate. Since the table isn't explicitly provided, we can't determine the exact unit rate we should compare with. However, assuming that we know this rate, we can compare it to the coefficients in each option:

y = 5/7x: The unit rate is 5/7.

y = 3/5x: The unit rate is 3/5.

y = 1/3x: The unit rate is 1/3.

y = 7/9x: The unit rate is 7/9.

y = 7/11x: The unit rate is 7/11.

To identify which equations have a greater unit rate, simply compare each of the above coefficients (unit rates) to the unit rate given in the table. Any equation with a unit rate greater than that of the table should be selected.
