a glass box shaped like a rectangular prism has a width 7 inches, length 9 inches, and height 12 inches. it's being shipped in a larger box with width 10 inches, length 10 inches, and height 15 inches. the space between the glass boz and the shipping box will be filled with styrofoam peanuts. how many cubic inches of space will contain styrofoam peanuts? show all work

area of rectangle a is 2 times that of rectangle b that means 2x+x =   36cm^2

3x = 36cm ^2

x = 36/3

x= 12cm^2

and 2x = 24cm^2

now side of square = are divided by sides = 36/4 = 6cm

that means length of rectangle a and b is 6cm too

now for rectangle a,

l*b = area

= 6*y=24

y=24/6 = 4

therefore dimensions of rectangle a are- length = 6cm, breadth = 4cm

and for rectangle b, length = 6cm and breadth = 6-4 = 2cm.

hope this .
