To find the unit rate when given a table, the most appropriate steps would be:
-
C. Graph the given points in the table. - This step helps you visualize the data and understand the relationship between the values.
-
A. Draw a line through the points and extend it to the axis. - If the relationship is linear, this helps you see the line that best represents the data.
-
E. The unit rate is the slope of the line. - Once you have graphed the points and drawn a line, the unit rate (the rate per single unit of the independent variable) can be determined as the slope of the line.
So the sequence would ideally be:
C → A → E
Options B and D are ineffective as they do not involve analytical or calculative methods to find the unit rate.
