Answer:

The expression that can be used to find the volume of the cardboard box is:

(4−2x)(2−2x)x

Step-by-step explanation:

A box without a top is made from a rectangular piece of cardboard, with dimensions 4 m by 2 m, by cutting out square corners with side length x.

i.e. the box is in the shape of a cuboid.

Now the volume of a box is same as the volume of a cuboid.

We know that the volume of a cuboid is given as:

Volume of cuboid=Length×Breadth×Height.

So, the length of the cuboid box is: 4-2x

and the width of the box is: 2-2x

Also, the height of box is: x

Hence, the volume of cuboid is:

Volume=(4-2x)\times (2-2x)\times x\\\\Volume=(4-2x)(2-2x)x

Hence, the expression for the volume of cuboid box is:

             (4−2x)(2−2x)x

Round 9.62 to the nearest whole number
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Anything greater than 9.49 would be rounded to 10, if it were 9.49, it would be rounded to 9. But only look at the numbers after the decimal.

i.e. ;

7.23 = 7

3.33 = 3

8.89 = 9

14.56 = 15

26.91 = 27
