Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that A cereal manufacturer decides to offer a new family-sized box based on the regular-sized box. They want the volume of the family-sized box to be three times the volume of the regular-sized box. However, they want the length of the family-sized box to be the same as the regular-sized box.

If original dimensions are l,w and h then volume = lwh

Volume of new box is= 3lwh

But here w becomes 2w and l remains the same.  Let h' be the new height

Then we have

l(2w)h' = 3lwh\\h' =1.5 h

So by 1.5 factor height should be dilated.

Luda [366]
1.49/3

0.5 dollars per feet.

This is a fraction equal to 1.49/3.

We want a unit rate where 1 is the denominator, so we divide the top and bottom by 3.

The answer is 0.49666667, which can be rounded to 0.5
