What is the unit rate if the candy is $7.80 for 2 pounds?

= 3.9 candy per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a fraction equal to

7.8 candy ÷ 2 pounds

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 2

7.8 candy        ÷ 2

2 pounds÷ 2

=  

3.9 candy

1 pound

=  

3.9 candy

pound

= 3.9 candy per pound

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1
