Answer:

5 meals.

Step-by-step explanation:

By proportion that is (140/84) * 8

= 13 1/3

Oh sorry I misread the question - its 84 more.

So the answer is (140 / (140+84)* 8

= 5.

Chester Boles reviewed his credit card's monthly statement. It shows a $2,376.10 previous balance and this month's new purchases
ss7ja [257]

Initial balance, I = $2376.10 .

Total amount of purchase made, A = $( 875.22+65.75+45.22+21.23 ) = $1007.42 .

Total amount credit, c = $875.22 .

Fine, f = $45.30 .

Another purchase, a=\dfrac{2376.10\times 2.5}{100}=\$ 59.4025 .

So, balance left is :

B = I - A - f - a + c

B = 2376.10 - 1007.42 - 45.30 - 59.4025 + 875.22

B = $2139.1975

Hence, this is the required solution.

Please help!! I need to know this by today

Answer=60

Since the base of the prism is a right triangle, we can use the pythagorean theorem to solve for x.

a²+b²=c²
plug in the data
a²+24²=30²
a²+576=900
subtract 576 from both sides
a²=324
sq root
a=18
So x=18


The formula for the volume of a triangular prism is...

V=(area of the base)*(height)
V=1/2bh*H      where b=base of triangle h=height of triangle, H=height of prism
plug in the data that we know
720=1/2*18*24*H
720=216*H
divide both sides by 216
3 1/3=H

So x=18 and y=3 1/3 or 3.33 repeating

The product of the two

18*3 1/3=60

Answer=60
