Determine the unit rate for one bag of chips if five bags cost 6.25 The proposal relationship is described by 5y=$6.25x

Question

$0.80
$31.25
$1
$1.25

Answer 1

To find the unit rate for one bag of chips given that five bags cost $6.25, we can set up the calculation as follows:

1. Divide the total cost by the number of bags: \[ \text{Cost per bag} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Number of Bags}} = \frac{6.25}{5} \]

2. Perform the calculation: \[ \text{Cost per bag} = \frac{6.25}{5} = 1.25 \]

Thus, the unit rate for one bag of chips is $1.25.
