We can use a rule of three simple, direct proportion to solve this problem.
15 pounds correspond to $1.80, then the question is to find the price of one pound, the called unit rate. We state the rule of three:
15 pound ----> $1.80
1 pound -----> x
x = (1)(1.80)/15
x = 0.12
Therefore, each pound costs $0.12 that is the unit rate in pounds
First, convert 3 tons to ounces.
3 tons = 96,000 ounces. Divide this by 12 ounces.
96,000/12 = 8000
So, 8000 boxes can be filled each week!
Hope this helps!!

Answer:
x = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
-1/4 (2x + 8) = -6
Multiply both sides by -4.
2x + 8 = 24
Subtract 8 from both sides.
2x = 16
Divide both sides by 2.
x = 8
