dave builds a crate to hold veggies. the volume of the crate is 48 cubic feet. the base area of the crate is 16 square feet. what is the height of the crate?

Sagot :

16 sq ft = 2 ft x 8 ft

               4 ft x 4 ft

but..

4 ft x 4 ft x 4 ft = 64 cubic ft

So 4 cannot be the height of this crate.

h represents the height of the crate (defined variable)

2 ft x 8 ft x h = 48 cubic ft

16h = 48

h = 3 ft

The height of the crate is 3 feet.

Check:

2 ft x 8 ft x 3 ft = 48 ft ³
