Answer:
Unit rate defined as the rate are expressed as a quantity of 1, such as 3 feet per second or 9 miles per hour, they are called unit rates.
As per the statement: Regina purchased 1.75 pounds of turkey breast from her local deli for $5.99 per pound.
⇒ unit rate per pound = $5.99.
by definition of unit rate;
Total she spends on turkey breast = [tex]\text{Unit rate per pound} \times 1.75[/tex]
Substitute the given values, we get;
Total she spends on turkey breast = [tex]5.99 \times 1.75 =\$10.4825[/tex]
Therefore, $10.50 (to the nearest cent) did she spend.
