Math Problem Statement
what would be the unit rate for the following tables:
What would be the unit rate for the following tables?
Solution
To calculate the unit rate for the tables:
Table A
The unit rate is the change in grade per unit score. Using the data:
- When the score increases from to , the grade increases by .
- Similarly, from to , to , and to , the increase in grade is consistently .
Unit rate for Table A: (grade per score).
Table B
Similarly, calculate the unit rate:
- When the score increases from to , the grade increases by .
- From to , to , and to , the increase in grade is .
Unit rate for Table B: (grade per score).
Would you like to know how this applies to other scenarios or additional insights?
Follow-up Questions:
- What does the unit rate represent in these tables?
- How can we compare the proportionality of Table A and Table B?
- Can we express the relationships in these tables using equations?
- What happens to the unit rate if the scores are multiplied by a constant factor?
- How could these tables be used to create graphs, and what would their slopes indicate?
Tip:
The unit rate corresponds to the slope of the line if the data is graphed, showing how one variable changes with respect to the other.
