The volume of the rectangular prism can be express in standard polynomial as follows:

x³ + 12x² + 35x

<h3>How to find the volume of a rectangular prism?</h3>

volume of a rectangular prism = lwh

where

Therefore,

let

height = x

width = x + 5

length = x + 5 + 2 = x + 7

Therefore,

volume = x(x + 5)(x + 7)

volume = x(x² + 7x + 5x + 35)

volume = x(x² + 12x + 35)

volume = x³ + 12x² + 35x
