Answer:

The new balance is 46.736

Explanation:

Destiny Paxton's previous balance at coffee emporium = 59.27

payments and credits = 29.21

Now her unpaid balance is

=> previous balance at coffee emporium - payments and credits

=> 59.27-29.21

=> 30. 06

So her unpaid balance is = 30.06

The new finance charge is 1.75 percent of the unpaid balance

=>
1.75% of 30.06

=>
(1.75)/(100) * 30.06

=>
0.0175 * 30.06

=>0.52605

Now the balance will be

=> 30.06 + 0.52605

=> 30.576

she had 16.16 in new purchases

=> 30.576 + 16.16

=>46.736
