This is the following way to solve this problem:
3x-10(x+2)=13-7x
3x-10x-20=13-7x (multiply 10 times what's in the parentheses)
-7x-20=13-7x ( subtract 3x from -10x)
-7x-20-13=-7x ( since the 13 is positive, when we move it to the other
side, we change it's sign, so now we subtract 13 from 20
-7x-7=-7x
-7=-7x+7x ( we do the same thing we did above, now with the -7x)
-7=x
x=-7
Answer: x = -7

We know that
volume of the box=length*width*height
V=L*W*H----> H=V/[L*W]
V=576 in³
L=12 in
W=8 in
so
H=576/[12*8]----> H=6 in
the answer is
the height of the box is 6 in
2 1/4 = 9/4
(9/4)(8/5) = (9/1)(2/5) = 18/5 = 3 3/5 cups
The missing value is 6 so 2/5 = 6/15
