Answer:

a

Generally given that the number of cups of blue to that of red paint is 3: 1 then the Lara mixed 3 cups of blue paint with 1 cup of red paint

b

The number is  x=  \frac{1}{3}

c

The price is P  = \$ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The ratio of  the number of cups of blue paint to the number of cups of red paint is  r  =  3: 1

Generally given that the number of cups of blue to that of red paint is 3: 1 then the Lara mixed 3 cups of blue paint with 1 cup of red paint

Given that  1 cup of  red paint  =>   3 cups of blue paint

                 x cup of  red paint  =>  1  cup of  blue paint

So

         x=  \frac{1 *  1}{3}

=>      x=  \frac{1}{3}

Generally the unit price of a cup of blue paint is mathematically represented as

     P  =  \frac{48}{6}

=>  P  = \$ 8
