9 mugs for $45

What is the rate?

And what is the unit rate?

 The unit rate is $5 per  mug.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the the unit rate, you will find the amount  one mug will cost.

If there are 9 mugs  then to get it to one, you will have to divide 9 by 9, and the same way you will have to divide 45 by 9.

45 / 9 = 5  

x = -4

step-by-step explanation:

- 20 - 4(x + 3) = 4x

=> -20 - 4x - 12 = 4x

=> - 32 -4x = 4x

=> -32 = 4x + 4x

=> - 32 = 8x

=> -32/8 = x

=> -4 = x
