First, find the cost of 1 box of pasta. 13/5 = 2.6, so $2.60 a box.

Next, find how many boxes there are. 48/12 = 4, so 4 boxes of pasta.

Finally, multiply 4*2.6 to get the final cost.

I'LL GIVE YOU BRAINIEST!<br> 1 1/5 · x/3 = 9/10 solve for x

joja [24]

$\huge\text{Hey there!}$

$\huge\textbf{Equation:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Solve:}$

$\mathbf{1 \dfrac{1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{1\times5+1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5 + 1}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5} \times \dfrac{x}{3} = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Multiply \boxed{\bf \dfrac{5}{2}} to both sides:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{2}{5}x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\huge\textbf{Simplify it:}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5}{2}\times \dfrac{9}{10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{5\times9}{2\times10}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45}{20}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{45\div5}{20\div5}}$

$\mathbf{\rightarrow x = \dfrac{9}{4}}$

$\mathbf{x \approx 2 \dfrac{1}{4}}$

$\huge\textbf{Therefore, your answer should be:}$

$\huge\boxed{\mathsf{x = }\frak{2 \dfrac{1}{4}}}\huge\checkmark$

A car moves with an average speed of 45 miles/hour. How long does the car take to travel 90 miles? A. 2 minutes B. 2 hours C. 45

svlad2 [7]

We know that distance = rate(time). We need to solve for time here.

$d = rt\\90 = 45t\\t = \frac{90}{45}\\t = 2$

The car took 2 hours to travel 90 miles at a speed of 45 mi/hr
