One way to model this situation with an inequality is:
b x 15 > 2520
This inequality represents the fact that the area of the base of the box (b) times the height of the box (15 inches) must be greater than 2520 in.3 in order for the box to contain more than 2520 in.3.
A packing box with a height of 15 inches needs to contain more than 2,520 in.3 . How would you model this situation with an inequality to show the possible area, b , of the base of the box?(1 point)
