document.write( " Suppose that your building a toolbox, which should be on a shelf that in 10in. wide. The toolbox is 20 in. long and 6 in. high. In order to have the volume of 960 in. cubed, how wide should the toolbox be? Will it fit on the shelf?

Algebra.Com's Answer #162071 by ptaylor(2198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Volume(V) of the toolbox =Length(L) times Width(W) times Height(H) or V=LWH\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now we are told the length (20 in)and the height (6 in) and the volume (960 cu in). So our equation to solve is: \n" ); document.write( "20*6*W=960 or \n" ); document.write( "120W=960 divide both sides by 120 \n" ); document.write( "W=8 in----------------it will fit on the shelf\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "CK \n" ); document.write( "960=20*6*8 \n" ); document.write( "960=960\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps---ptaylor \n" ); document.write( " |
