What is the unit rate of the scenario: 10 shirts cost $120?

A) $120 B)$12 C) $10 D)$100

square root (9) < square root (14) < square root (16). Basically, you are asking what number less than 14 is a perfect square? That is 9 and its root is 3. Then what number greater than 14 is a perfect square? That is 16 and its root is 4. Therefore, square root (14) is between 3 and 4. It's exact answer is closer to 4, maybe 3.75-- that's a guess on my part, but good mathematicians really only good guessers :-)

if 10 shirts cost $120, then price per shirt is total cost divided total shirts: $120/10 = 12 per shirt. Your answer is B.

p.s. To Amy: do you really think this person asking these questions would know the term "monotonic"??

Dear lisacandita85: monotonic is a term used in integral calculus. If we want to say that a set of numbers never decreases (or increase), we say it is "monotonic." For example, consider the set { 4, 5, 7, 9, 11, 11, 14, 17 } this set is NOT constantly increasing (11 is used twice) but it does not decrease, therefore, it is monotonic.

Hope this helps--have a great day!!

I: let's lok at it this way and square a couple of integers. 3^2=9 and 4^2=16 and 14 is surely in dar somwhere I tink.

2. Well a unit is known as the number 1, so we are talking about how muck does one shirt cost when I don't want to buy ten of dem for $120. I only want one, cause dat's all I can wear at one time. So I taks 120 dollars anda I diivida dat by 10 anda I gotta pay $12 for my ona shirt.

You know that the square root of 9 is 3 and that the square root of 16 is 4, so the square root of 14 is between 3 and 4

To do the second question, simply divide $120 by 10, giving you $12 (B)

We can approximate the square root by check and guess here. 3^2 is 9...too low, and 4^2 is 16...too high. So the square root would be a point between the integers of 3 and 4.

Answer: B

The square root function is monotonic.
9 < 14 < 16, therefore √9 < √14 < √16.

"unit" means one. If 10 identical shirts cost $120, how much is that for each shirt?

find a perfect square just less than 14 and find a perfect square just greater than 14

The bases of these perfect squares are what you seek..

I only answer one question per submission.

3 and 4
