Question

Can someone please help me with this question I need to find the unit rate.

Answer 1

60c per pound.

Explanation:

If 5lbs cost 3 dollars, 1lb = 3/5

3/5 = 0.6$

60c

Answer 2

First we have to take any point, I'll take (5,3).

X-axis represents number of pounds and y-axis represents total cost (in $).

So, 5 pounds = $3

=> 1 pound = $3/5

=> 1 pound = $0.6

=> 1 pound = 60 cents
