Answer:

The box is about 17 inches long

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a box can be found by using:

[tex]V = W*H*L[/tex]

We know V, W, and H. We have to find L

[tex]L*6*12=1242[/tex]

[tex]\frac{L*6*12}{6*12} =\frac{1242}{6*12} \\L = \frac{1242}{72}=\frac{69}{4}[/tex]

69/4 is 17.25, which is about 17 inches

Answer: Option A

17.25 or 17(about)

Step-by-step explanation:

V = Length * Width * Height

V = 1242 cubic inches

Width = 6 inches

Height = 12 inches

Length = x

1242 = 6 * 12 * x

1242 = 72x

Divide both sides by 72 to get the length which is x

1242/72 = 72x/72

17.25 = x

It is about or approximately 17
