The cost of pumpkin seeds is proportional to
their weight. A 24 ounce bag of pumpkin
Seeds cost $6.00. What is the unit rate
for the pumpkin seeds? How much would 56.
ounce bag of pumpkin seeds cost?

Part 1) The unit rate is  

Part 2) A 56 ounce bag of pumpkin  Seeds cost $14.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1) What is the unit rate  for the pumpkin seeds?

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or

Let

y ----> the cost of pumpkin seeds in dollars

x ---> the weight in ounces

we have

For x=24 ounces, y=$6

Find the value of the constant of proportionality k

substitute the values

The unit rate is the same that the constant of proportionality k

therefore

The unit rate is

Part 2) How much would 56. ounce bag of pumpkin seeds cost?

we know that

The linear equation is equal to

For x=56 ounces

substitute in the linear equation and solve for y
