Given:
Given that Steven purchased a box of chocolate shaped like a square pyramid.
The box is 12 inches tall and the area of the bottom of the box is 35 square inches.
We need to determine the expression that is used to find the number of chocolates that the box holds.
Expression:
The expression that is used to find the number of chocolates that the box holds can be determined using the formula,
where B is the area of the base and h is the height of the pyramid.
Substituting B = 35 and h = 12 in the above formula, we get;
Thus, the expression that is used to find the number of chocolates that the box holds is
Hence, Option b is the correct answer.
