The volume of a pillbox can be calculated using the formula V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given that the height of the pillbox is 1/2 inch, we can set up the following inequality to find the minimum volume required:
V > 2
lwh > 2
l*w*(1/2) > 2
lw > 4
Since the volume of a pillbox cannot be negative, we can assume that the length and width are both positive values. Therefore, the solution to the inequality is lw > 4, where l and w are both greater than 2.
A pillbox with a height of 1/2 inch needs to have a volume greater than 2 inches what is the solution of an inequality
