Question

The equation y equals 6.5 x represents the relationship between the number of sandwiches sold, x, and the amount of money earned, y, in dollars.

Question
What is the unit rate of dollars per sandwich? Enter the answer in the box.

Answer 1

The unit rate of dollars per sandwich can be found from the equation \( y = 6.5x \), where \( y \) represents the amount of money earned in dollars and \( x \) represents the number of sandwiches sold.

In this equation, the coefficient of \( x \) (which is 6.5) represents the amount of money earned per sandwich sold.

Therefore, the unit rate of dollars per sandwich is:

**6.5** dollars per sandwich.
