Algebra.Com's Answer #2719 by rapaljer(4671)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Volume of a Box = Length * Width * Height\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "However, this also can be thought of as \n" ); document.write( "Volume = (Area of the base of the box) * (Height)\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "You are given two of these quantities: V= 120 cubic meters, and Base = 24 square meters. What you need to find is the height. Let x = height \n" ); document.write( "V = Area * Height \n" ); document.write( "120 = 24 * x\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now just divide both sides by 24:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "x = 5 meters.\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "R^2 at SCC \n" ); document.write( " |
