Answer:
He is wrong, because for 2 inches of height, the peice of wood for base has smaller width than the width required for the base Maurice wants to make.
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of wood = 18 inches
Width of wood = 12 inches
If height of the table is needed = 2 inches
2 inches are reduced from each side of the piece of wood.
The new measurement become:
Length of wood = 18 - 2 - 2 inches
Length of wood = 14 inches
Width of wood = 12 - 2 - 2
Width of wood = 8 inches
Maurice wants to make a table with following dimensions:
Base =
which means
Length required =
Width required =
As width is greater than the width of the piece of wood , he cannot make a table of such dimension from it.
