OpenStudy (anonymous):
no :(
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
well, ok...
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
the average cereal box is about 2 inches wide, 12 inches tall, and 8 inches long,
Width = 2 inches
Height = 12 inches
Length = 8 inches, ok?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok we will use that :)

surface area = 2*L*W + 2*W*H + 2*H*L
what is the surface area?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait how do i find the surface area
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
L = 8
W = 2
H = 12
Surface Area = 2*L*W + 2*W*H + 2*H*L
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
please do the math
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok no problem :) what step are we on ?

good, you just finished step 3
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok what was the answer for step 1 and 2 again please:)
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
step 1 is the dimensions of the box
I'll get back to step 2 later
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok and what was the dimensions of the box?
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
Length = ?
Width = ?
Height = ?
do you remember the three numbers?

OpenStudy (anonymous):
oh wait yes i do .. you can continue :)
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
great, "dimensions" just means, what is the length, what is the width, and what is the height? that's all
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok next step .. number 4
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
ok, so, when we "scale" the box by a factor of 10, it becomes 10 times longer, 10 times wider, and 10 times taller
what is the new length, width, and height after we multiply each by 10?

give me a sec

length: 80
width: 20
height : 120
OpenStudy (anonymous):
whats the answer for step 2? @Vocaloid
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Vocaloid
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
I already told you, I'm going to get back to step 2 later, please be patient
ok, you found the new length, width, and height. what is the surface area? (using length = 80, width = 20, and height = 120)?

@Vocaloid
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
no, please use the length, width, and height that you just found.
L = length = 120, W = width = 20, H = height = 120
Surface area = 2*W*H + 2*L*W + 2*H*L

Vocaloid (vocaloid):
perfect, now go to step 5
Volume = L*W*H
IMPORTANT: use the original dimensions from step 1!
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
find the volume of the box
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait so what was the answer for step 4
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
step 4: what is the surface area of the box after it has been scaled up by 10?? please try to concentrate on what is being asked

ok ... step 5?
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
I just told you: volume of the box = L*W*H using the dimensions from step 1
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
find the volume of the box

Vocaloid (vocaloid):
great, step 5 is done, now on to step 6

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
"scaling down" means that the length, width, and height are divided by 10. Using these new dimensions, find the volume of the box
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait so now what do i do?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Vocaloid
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
divide the length, width, and height by 10 and find the new volume

like this:
l / w / h
OpenStudy (anonymous):
@Vocaloid
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
No, no, that's not what I meant
new length = old length/10
new width = old width/10
new height = old height/10
find the new length, new width, and new height
OpenStudy (anonymous):
wait can you write it out and ill solve it

@Vocaloid
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
Please stop tagging me, I won't say it again.
I already wrote it out for you:
the old length is 8 inches
the old width is 2 inches
the old height is 12 inches
the new length = old length/10
new width = old width/10
new height = old height/10
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so i have to divide by the new length or old?
Vocaloid (vocaloid):
please, just follow what I wrote out:
new length = old length/10
new width = old width/10
new height = old height/10
find the new length, new width, and new height, using the old length, old width, and old height
divide the old length by 10
divide the old width by 10
divide the old height by 10
do you know how to divide by 10?
