The document provides instructions for finding the unit rate of relationships between two quantities and writing equations to represent those relationships. It gives examples of finding the unit rate for costs of t-shirts, video games rentals, and sugar in glasses of soda. It then explains that to find a point on a line represented by an equation, you substitute a value for the variable and solve for the other variable. Examples are given of determining the point for equations relating hats and costs, distance and time, temperature and hours, and barbie doll height and years.
