anyone?

No one.

What's your question?

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

I need to find the surface area of a box that has 4 in on each side, the volume of the box when you scale the volume down by 10 and the surface area of the box when it is scaled up by a factor of ten

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

@AmTran_Bus

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

V = 64

OpenStudy (data_lg2):

First thing you have to do is calculate for the surface area and the volume of the box using its original dimension (4 in). Then, you can just scale the values later. So what will you get for the surface area using the original dimension? So what will you get for the volume using the original dimension?

OpenStudy (data_lg2):

Surface area formula is \(\sf 6a^2\) and the volume is \(a^3\)

OpenStudy (zootedyoungin):

Idk how to do the formulas

OpenStudy (phi):

if you look at a square (or a book as an example), how many sides does it have? 4 "sides" and top and bottom. that is 6 different sides for a square box (which is what you have here) all 6 sides are the same size. if a square has a width of 4 and a height of 4, what is the area of that square ? (people would use area = length * width)
