To determine the unit rates, we need to express the relationship between the amount of sugar and the amount of vanilla in terms of a common unit.
Option A states that 2 tablespoons of sugar correspond to 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla. To find the unit rate, we want to determine the amount of sugar for one unit of vanilla. We can divide both sides of the equation by 1/2 to isolate the amount of sugar for one unit of vanilla:
(2 tablespoons of sugar) / (1/2 teaspoon of vanilla) = 4 tablespoons of sugar.
Therefore, the unit rate for option A would be 4 tablespoons of sugar to 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
Option B states that 1 tablespoon of sugar corresponds to 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla. Similarly, we can divide both sides of the equation by 1/4 to find the unit rate:
(1 tablespoon of sugar) / (1/4 teaspoon of vanilla) = 4 tablespoons of sugar.
Therefore, the unit rate for option B would also be 4 tablespoons of sugar to 1 teaspoon of vanilla.
So, the correct answers are option A (2 tablespoons of sugar: 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla) and option B (1 tablespoon of sugar: 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla).
