UNIT 6: CEREAL BOX PROJECT / PORTFOLIO

A company has released the following possible designs for a new cereal box. The cost of production depends upon the cost of materials, which is determined by how much material is used. The amount of material used is equal to the surface area of the package plus some overlap. The amount of product contained in the package is the volume of the packaging.

Find the surface area and volume of the following possible cereal boxes. Determine the cost of making the cereal box assuming that cardboard costs $0.05 per square inch.

Answer:

DO you go to a connexus school? I do and i have this same project im trying to find answers to!

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first box the volume, surface area, and cost of materials are 180 cubic inches, 258 square inches, and $12.9, for the second box 192 cubic inches, 224.4 square inches, and $11.22 for the third box 235.61 cubic inches, 227.76 square inches, and $11.38.

It is defined as a three-dimensional space enclosed by an object or thing.

For the first cereal box:

Volume = L×W×H

Here L = 7.5 in, W = 2 in, and H = 12 in

Volume = 7.5×2×12 = 180 cubic inches

Surface area = 2(L×B+B×H+H×L)

= 2(7.5×2+2×12+12×7.5)

= 2(15+24+90)

= 258 square inches

Cost for this cereal box = 258×0.05 = $12.9

For the second cereal box:

[tex]\rm Volume = \frac{1}{3} bh[/tex]

b is the area and h, is the height of the pyramid.

b = 8×6 = 48 square inches, h = 12 inches

[tex]\rm Volume = \frac{1}{3} \times48\times12[/tex]

Volume = 192 cubic inches

[tex]\rm Surface \ area = b+\frac{1}{2} ps[/tex]

p is the perimeter of the base = 2(8+6) = 28 in

Slant height s = 12.6 in

[tex]\rm Surface \ area = 48+\frac{1}{2} (28)(12.6)[/tex] = 224.4 square inches

Cost of this cereal box = 224.2×0.05 = $11.22

For the third box:

Volume = πr²h

r = 2.5 in and h = 12 in

Volume = π(2.5)²(12) = 235.61 cubic inches

Surface area = 2πr(h+r) = 2π(2.5)(12+2.5) = 227.76 square inches

Cost of this cereal box = 227.76×0.05 = $11.38

Thus, for the first box the volume, surface area, and cost of materials are 180 cubic inches, 258 square inches, and $12.9, for the second box 192 cubic inches, 224.4 square inches, and $11.22 for the third box 235.61 cubic inches, 227.76 square inches, and $11.38.
