A box with no top is to be constructed from a piece of cardboard whose length measures 88 in. more than its width. the box is to
MariettaO [177]

Let x be the width of the cardboard (which means the length of the cardboard is x+88), then the dimensions of the box are:

Length = [(x + 88) - 2(33)]

Width = x - 2(33)

Heighth = 33

Volume = length · width · heighth

144,144 = [(x + 88) - 2(33)] · [x - 2(33)] · 33

144,144 = (x+22)(x-66)(33)

4368 = (x+22)(x-66)

4368 = x² - 44x - 1452

0 = x² - 44x - 5820

use the quadratic formula to calculate that x = 101

Answer: cardboard width = 101, cardboard length = 189
