Question

Shannon Perfumeries sells two fragrances. The table contains the price corresponding to the number of bottles of fragrance A. The graph represents the relationship of the price with respect to the number of bottles of fragrance B. The unit rate of fragrance A is $___ , and the unit rate of fragrance B is $____ . Fragrance ___ has the greater unit rate.

Answer 1

Based on the table, the unit rate or the price of one perfume bottle of Fragrance A is $26 because:

`\begin{gathered} (78)/(3)=26 \\ (156)/(6)=26 \\ (234)/(9)=26 \end{gathered}`

On the other hand, looking at the graph for Fragrance B, we can see that one perfume of Fragrance B is $24 because:

Therefore, Fragrance A has a greater unit rate compared to Fragrance B.
