Question

UNIT 5: CEREAL BOX PROJECT / PORTFOLIO HELP

Answer 1

Using the formula for volume and surface area of solids, we have the following:

1. 180 in.³; 258 in.²; $12.9

2. 144 in.³; 184 in.²; $9.2

3. 75 in.³; 228 in.²; $11.4

What is Volume and Surface Area?

Volume of a rectangular prism = l × w × h

Surface area of a rectangular prism = 2(wl+hl+hw)

Volume of a square pyramid = 1/3 × a² × h

Surface area of a square pyramid = a² + 2al

Volume of a cylinder = πr²h

Surface area of a cylinder = 2πr( h + r)

1. Volume of the rectangular prism cereal box = 7.5 × 2 × 12 = 180 in.³

Surface area of the rectangular prism cereal box = 2(wl+hl+hw) = 2(2 × 7.5 + 12 × 7.5 + 12 × 2) = 258 in.²

Cost of material for the the rectangular prism cereal box = 258 × 0.05 = $12.9.

2. Volume of the square pyramid cereal box = 1/3 × a² × h = 1/3 × 6² × 12 = 144 in.³

Surface area of the square pyramid cereal box = a² + 2al = 6² + 2(6)(12.3) ≈ 184 in.²

Cost of material for the the square pyramid cereal box = 184 × 0.05 = $9.2.

3. Volume of the cylinder cereal box = πr²h = π(2.5²)(12) = 75 in.³

Surface area of the cylinder cereal box = 2π(2.5)(12 + 2.5) ≈ 228 in.²

Cost of material for the the cylinder cereal box = 228 × 0.05 = $11.4.
