Let height of the brick h=x inch \n" ); document.write( "Then \n" ); document.write( " length(l)=4x-2 inch \n" ); document.write( "& width(b)=2x-1inch \n" ); document.write( " Now sum the dimensions \n" ); document.write( "i.e. l+b+h=28.5 \n" ); document.write( " 4x-2+2x-1+x=28.5 [invoke liner \"x\"] \n" ); document.write( " x= 4.5 inch or (x=4.5\") \n" ); document.write( " Using this value we get l=16\" , b=8\" , h= 4.5\" \n" ); document.write( " [A brick is in cuboid shape so we find the volume by using the formula of cuboid ] \n" ); document.write( "Now the volume of brick =length譿idth議eight unit cube \n" ); document.write( " =16.5 inch cube \n" ); document.write( " =576\"cube \n" ); document.write( " |
