The price to ship a box varies directly as the weight of the box in pounds. A box that weighs 10 pounds costs $10.90 to ship.

What would it cost to ship a second box that weighs 37 pounds?

A.

$4.03

B.

$403.30

C.

$33.94

D.

$40.33

Well we can say 10.90/10 = the cost per pound to ship the item

we can infer this from the above text so

10.90/10 = 1.09.

So 1.09 * 37 = 40.33

$40.33

or 40 dollars and 33 cents to ship the second box with a weight of 37lb (pounds).
