Answer:

If a box has a greater volume, it can hold more cereal.

Box 2 can hold more cereal. Although the value of x is unknown, it represents a length, so it must be greater than zero. For any x > 1, the volume of Box 2 is greater than the volume of Box 1.

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

Box 2

Explanation:

In these expressions, x represents the width of the box.  We are asked about widths greater than 1; let's us 1.1 as an example:

Box 1:

3(1.1⁵) = 4.83153

Box 2:

4(1.1⁵)-(1.1⁴) = 6.44204 - 1.4641 = 4.97794

With a difference as small as a tenth, the volume of box 2 is larger.  The larger the difference in width, the larger the difference in volume, and the volume of box 2 will be larger every time.

elena55 [62]

Answer:

128 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cups = volume per meal × no. of meals

C = V × n

Divide each side by V

n = C/V = 48/(⅜)

Invert the fraction and multiply

n = 48 × ⁸/₃

Cancel 3s

n = 16 × 8  

Multiply

n = 128

Ryan can eat pancakes 128 times from his giant bottle without running out of syrup.
