The base length will be found as follows:
volume of the triangular prism is given by:
V=1/2ab×h
where:
10 ft
b=6.9 ft
thus the height will be found as follows:
276=1/2×10×6.9×h
solving for h we get:
h=276/34.5
h=8 ft
For the answer to the question above,
The simple interest formula is I = P * r * t
P is the principal (2,000)
r is the interest rate (7% or 0.07)
t is the time (5)
2000 * 0.07 * 5 = 700
$700.00 is the interest
Joe has to pay $700.00 in interest.
I hope this helps
2/3 is bigger than 1/3......TO CHECK this answer 2/3=66% or .66 and 1/3=33% or .33
Therefore, 2/3(66%) is greater than 1/3(33%)
2/3>1/3
