Linear equations and inequalitiesSolve problems using formulas from geometryA rectangular flower box holds 1232 in3 of soil. Find the height of the box if it is 22. Long and 7 in. Wide.

Answer :

The rectangular flower box is basically a rectangular prism. The volume of a rectangular prism is given by:

[tex]V=l\cdot w\cdot h[/tex]

Where:

l = Length or long = 22in

w = width = 7in

h = height

V = Volume = 1232

Solve for h:

[tex]\begin{gathered} h=\frac{V}{l\cdot w} \\ h=\frac{1232}{22\cdot7} \\ h=\frac{1232}{154} \\ h=8in \end{gathered}[/tex]
