Note: Consider x be the breadth of the box.

Given:

The surface area of the box is 204.25 square feet.

Length of the box = 10 ft

Breadth of the box = x ft

Height of the box = 6.5 ft

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

The surface area of a cuboid is:

SA=2(lb+bh+hl)

Where, l is length, b is breadth and h is height of the cuboid.

Putting SA=204.25,  l=10,\ b=x,\ h=6.5 in the above formula, we get

204.25=2(10\times x+x\times 6.5+6.5\times 10)

204.25=2(10x+6.5x+65)

204.25=2(16.5x+65)

Using distributive property, we get

204.25=2(16.5x)+2(65)

204.25=33x+130

204.25-130=33x

74.25=33x

Divide both sides by 33.

\dfrac{74.25}{33}=x

2.25=x

Therefore, the correct option is B.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

(3,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

Collect like terms

y -5x = -9

y + 2x = 12

Using elimination method

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1

y - 5x = -9

y + 2x = 12

---------------

0. -7x = -21

Divide both sides by -7

-7x = -21

---- -----

-7 -7

x = 3

Substitute x=3 into equation 1

y = 5(3) - 9

y = 15 - 9

y = 6

Solution is (x,y) = (3,6)
