Question
A rectangular box has height h cm. Its length is 5 times the height and breadth is 10 cm less than the length. Express the length and the breadth of the box in terms of the height.
Solution
Height of box h cm
Length is 5 times the height = 5h
Breadth, 10 cm less than length = (5h − 10)
Hence the length of the box is 5h and breadth is (5h − 10).
