Answer:

7 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the distance between the library and police station x. Then, the distance between the police station and fire station would be 3 less than twice x. Twice means multiply by 2 so twice x is 2 * x = 2x and 3 less than means that you subtract 3 so 3 less than 2x is 2x - 3. Now, we know that x = 5 so all we have to do now is substitute x = 5 into 2x - 3, therefore, the answer is 2 * 5 - 3 = 7 miles.

If you buy tomato sauce for $.90 a quart how much does it cost for 5 pints
Dima020 [189]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: the price of 5 pints of tomato sauce is $2.25.

<h2>Why?</h2>

To calculate how much does it cost 5 pints, we need to perform a unit conversion with the following  unit relationship:

0.5Quart=Pints

Now, calculating how much is a pint:

\frac{0.9}{quarter}*\frac{0.5Quart}{1Pint}=0.45

A pint is $0.45.

Then, calculating how much are 5 pints:

Price=0.45*NoOfPints=0.45*5=2.25

Hence, the price of 5 pints of tomato sauce is $2.25.

Have a nice day!
