So my understanding from this you have to make it y = mx + b so m stands for the slope there’s different ways to find it as shown in the first picture. I’ll try to make another comment since this only lets me take one picture at a time.
The answer is in the picture below
Let
b-----------> the length side of the square box
h------------> the height of the box
SA---------> surface area of the box
we know that
[volume of the box]=b²*h
volume=256 in³
b²*h=256-------> h=256/b²-----> equation 1
surface area of the box=area of the base+perimeter of base*height
area of the base=b²
perimeter of the base=4*b
surface area=b²+(4*b)*h------> SA=b²+4*b*h-----> equation 2
substitute equation 1 in equation 2
SA=b²+4*b*[256/b²]-----> SA=b²+1024/b-----> SA=(b³+1024)/b
the answer is
the formula of the volume of the box is V=b²*h-----> 256=b²*h
the formula of the surface area of the box are
SA=b²+4*b*h
SA=(b³+1024)/b
$7.85 x .8 yards=$6.28.
$10-$6.28=$3.72 change back
If a dime equals 10¢, and 10 dimes equals 100¢ (or $1) you need to divide.
$90.10/10¢=90.1 dimes you need I think.
Hope this helps
