The answer is <span>$103.

To determine </span><span> how much Eileen will spend on gasoline, first we need to calculate how many gallons she needs.
If she drives 850 miles and </span><span>her car gets 23 miles per gallon, we can use the proportion:
850 miles : x gallons = 23 miles : 1 gallon
Crossing the products:
x = 850 miles </span>× 1 gallon ÷ 23 miles
x = 36.96 gallons

Thus, Eileen needs 36.96 gallons of gas. If the cost per gallon of gas is$2.79, using the proportion:
36.96 gallons : x = 1 gallon : <span>$2.79
x = 36.96 gallons </span>× $2.79 <span>÷ 1 gallon
x = </span>$103.12 
x ≈ $<span>103</span>

If you need to provide a wrap for a rice and meat mixture, you would most likely use cabbage or _______ leaves.
taurus [48]
You would most likely use lettuce leaves, because grapes are little orbs of fruit with no leaves, zuchini are funny shaped veggies, and hibiscus is a type of tree. So, the most logical answer would be lettuce leaves.
