can someone help me

skrtkobainn:

1. List the dimensions of your box. Be sure to include the units (in, cm, ft, etc.) length = 8in. width=5in. Height=1in. 2. Describe the shape of the cross section when the box is cut parallel to the base. 3. What is the surface area of the box? 4. What is the surface area of the box if it is scaled up by a factor of 10? 5. What is the volume of the box? 40in. 6. What is the volume of the box if it is scaled down by a factor of 1/10?

skrtkobainn:

i only need help finding out numbers 2, 3, 4,6

Astrid1:

For number two, here is what you want to do.. \[A=lw\] \[A=8 \times 5\] What is 8 times 5?

skrtkobainn:

40

skrtkobainn:

no

skrtkobainn:

i already did 3

skrtkobainn:

i need help with 2

HaydenwH:

so when u plug ur numbers in it will look like this Surface Area = 2×(8×5 + 8×1 + 5×1) work this out

HaydenwH:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @HaydenwH here is the formula you will use for 2 SA=2lw+2lh+2hw, \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) srry tht was 3 not 2

HaydenwH:

you can use this for number 2 https://www.learningfarm.com/web/practicePassThrough.cfm?TopicID=1402

skrtkobainn:

skrtkobainn:

my shape was a rectangle

HaydenwH:

40 is not correct for the surface area too

HaydenwH:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @skrtkobainn my shape was a rectangle \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) did you click the link?

HaydenwH:

that would be cut parallel to the base

skrtkobainn:

would it be a square if its cut in half

HaydenwH:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @skrtkobainn would it be a square if its cut in half \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no in order for it to be a cube* all side would have to have the same measurements

HaydenwH:

i would say @Tranquility for questions 4 and 6
