Answer 3

So, L represents how much rope we buy (in meters) and p represents how much we pay for the rope (in dollars). Our equation gives us p=0.8L
So, it seems like for every meter of rope we buy, in L, we pay 0.8 dollars, in p. In other words, one meter of rope costs 80 cents.
Next, we are asked to figure out how much rope costs 1 dollar. To do this, we can set p to 1 and then solve for L.
1=0.8L
By dividing both sides of the equation by 0.8, we get
1.25 = L
