The product is 60.

We start out with the information we have. This forms a right triangle, with one leg being 24, the other leg x, and the hypotenuse 30. Using the Pythagorean theorem we have

x²+24²=30²
x²+576=900

Subtract 576 from both sides:
x²+576-576 = 900-576
x²=324

Take the square root of each side:
√x²=√324
x=18

We know that the formula for the volume of a triangular prism is V=(1/2bh)H, where b is the base of the triangle, h is the height of the triangle, and H is the height of the prism. Substituting our known information we have:

720=(1/2*18*24)y
720=216y

Divide both sides by 216:
720/216 = 216y/216
3 1/3 = y

This means the product of x and y would be:
18(3 1/3)
18(10/3)
180/3
60

A one-stop flight from seattle to nyc can stop at boise, omaha, or chicago. the flight then connects to either la guardia or jfk

Sindrei [870]

The first and only stop of the flight can be Boise, Omaha or Chicago. This means there are 3 possibilities where to stop. From thee the flight connects to New York City, either to La Guardia or to JFK Airport.
1 possible route: Seattle-Boise-La Guardia
2 possible route: Seattle-Omaha-La Guardia
3 possible route: Seattle-Chicago-La Guardia
4 possible route: Seattle-Boise-NYC
5 possible route: Seattle-Omaha-NYC
6 possible route: Seattle-Chicago-NYC

Or in other words: There are two airports where the flight can arrive and for each of them there are three possible routes. So, in total there are 2*3=6 possible routes.

Ariana is shipping 8 bags of granola to a customer. Each bag weighs 22 ounces and the maximum weight she can ship in one box is

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Ariana cannot ship all the bags in one box.

Ariana will be sending 8 bags which will weigh a total of:

= 22 ounces x 8

= 176 ounces

You need to convert this to pounds to see if it will fit in the box:

1 pound = 16 ounces

176 ounces in pounds is therefore:

= 176 / 16

= 11 pounds

The box can only take 10 pounds and 5 ounces which is less than the 11 pounds the bags weigh.

Ariana cannot ship all the bags in one box.
