Answer:

$ 35.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost ( in dollars ) of 4 ounces of the pecans,

So, the ratio of the cost and ounces needed = \frac{x}{4}

Also, the cost of 1 ounces of pecans is $ 8.99,

Thus, the ratio of the cost and ounces needed = \frac{8.99}{1}

Hence, we can write,

\frac{x}{4}=\frac{8.99}{1}

Which is the required proportion,

By cross multiplication,

x = 4 × 8.99 = 35.96

Therefore, $ 35.96 is the cost of 4 ounces of the pecans.

NEED HELP A triangle is cut from a rectangle. The height of the triangle is half of the unknown side length s. The area of the s
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: 14s - 7s/2 = 84

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that s is the length of the unknown side:

Area of the shaded region = 84

Area of rectangle - Area of triangle = 84

Area of rectangle = L * W

= 14 * s

= 14s

Area of triangle = ¹/₂ * base * height

= ¹/₂ * 14 * s/2

= 7s/2

Area of shaded region:

14s - 7s/2 = 84

Solving for s:

14s - 7s/2 = 84

28s - 7s = 168

21s = 168

s = 168/21

s = 8 inches

(7x10*5)x(3x10*2) in standerd form
marishachu [46]

Answer:

21,000

Step-by-step explanation:

This is more of straightforward multiplication, so I cannot explain much! If you want me to try to do more, then just comment.

(7 * 10 * 5) * (3 * 10 * 2)

= (70 * 5) * (30 * 2)

= (350) * (60)

= 21,000

Thusly, in standard form, the equation given is \boxed{21,000}.

Hope this helps! (:
