document.write( "I have 6 x 3.5 = 21 So the top is 21 inches

Algebra.Com's Answer #72391 by doukungfoo(195)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! ok the formula for the volume of a rectangle box is length times width times height. or \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "Ok so lets plug in the given information. \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "first multiply 6 times 3.5 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "now divide both sides by 21 \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "and so H = 5 inches\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To check the answer just use the formula \n" ); document.write( "and plug in all the values so \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
