Question

I NEED HELP WITH MATH:
You are hired to design a new box for the company from Yum Yum Cereal. Your selection MUST have a Smaller Surface Area and a Larger Volume than the original box. Yum Yum has already tested, a cube, a cylinder, and a triangular prism, so you may NOT use those shapes.

Original Box:
length: 14 in
Height: 11 in
Width: 4 in

Surface area: 508 in^2
Volume: 616 in^3

Explain why this is the best option.

Answers

  1. Answer: Answer:
    Please find attached the required new cereal boxes for the Yum Yum Cereal Company created with Microsoft Visio
    Step-by-step explanation:
    The required volume of the cereal box = 2,400 cm³
    The box is to be drawn and labeled as follows using Microsoft Visio
    Box #1 Length = 16 cm, Width = 15 cm, Height = 10 cm
    The volume = Length × Width × Height = 16 cm × 15 cm × 10 cm = 2,400 cm³
    Box #2 Length = 30 cm, Width = 10 cm, Height = 8 cm
    The volume = Length × Width × Height = 30 cm × 10 cm × 8 cm = 2,400 cm³
    and this is more simple Volume = (length width) height For example, the volume of the cereal box pictured is 312 cubic inches because V = (8 3) 13 = 312 cubic inches.
