Answer:

width of one box = 1.25 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

12 congruent boxes

Length = 25 inches

height = 2 feet

Volume = 9000 cubic inches

First change the height into inches

1 foot = 12 inches

therefore 2 feet = 24 inches

Volume = Length * width * height

9000 = 25 * width * 24

9000 = 600 * width

width = 9000/600

width = 15 inches

width of one box = width of all boxes / number of boxes

width of one box = 15/12

width of one box = 1.25 inches

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (2,2) and (3,4)
Scrat [10]

Answer:

  y -2 = 2(x -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the line is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (4 -2)/(3 -2) = 2/1 = 2

The point-slope form of the equation for the line is ...

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

For the first point and the slope we found, the equation is ...

  y -2 = 2(x -2)

__

You can rearrange this to any form you may like.

  y -2 = 2x -4 . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = 2x -2 . . . . . slope-intercept form

  2x -y = 2 . . . . . standard form
