Question

a pizza parlor uses square prisms for their pizza boxes . due to the crust rising , the height of their boxes is always 2 inches . additionally , the volume of the pizza box must be 450 cubic inches to fit their standard sized pizza . a worker determined the the equation below could be used to find the side length x, of the box needed to reach the that volume.

2x^2=450

Answer 1

Answer:

The side length required is 15 inch.

Step-by-step explanation:

volume = L*b*h

height = 2 inch

side length = x

The box used is square prisms so, side length = width = x

Now, using the formula for volume:

                    V = L* b* h

                 or, 450 = x* x * 2

                 or, 450 = 2x²

                 or, 225 = x²

                    ∴ x = 15 inch

So the length required is 15 inch.
