Okay, let's think this through. If it's $5 per mile and the distance is 750 miles, that's $3,750 for the line haul cost. Now, to get the cost per hundredweight, we need to divide that by the weight in hundredweights. 45,000 pounds is 450 hundredweight, so the cost per cwt is... *furiously scribbles on paper* Aha! $8.33. That's gotta be the answer.

Hmm, looks like we need to do some calculations here. $5 per mile, 750 miles, and 45,000 pounds. Let's see, that's a lot of math to do in my head.
