The volume of a cuboid is given by length × width × height
We have:
Volume = 7.6 ft³
Height = 3x - 1
Length = x + 5
Width = x
Substituting these into the formula, we have:
7.6 = (3x - 1) (x + 5) (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 15x - x - 5] (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 14x - 5](x)
7.6 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x
0 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x - 7.6
Drawing the graph is one way of finding the solution (refer to the graph below):
We have three solutions (where the curve crosses the x-axis):
x = -4.9
x = -0.6
x = 0.8
Putting these solutions back into the context, since we are looking for the value of x which is part of measurement of length, we cannot have negative value, so we will take the value of x = 0.8 ft
Converting 0.8 ft into inches = 0.8 × 12 inches = 9.6 inches
Answer: x = 9.6 inches
Important notes:
3 sides 1 angle - COSINE RULE
2 sides 2 angle - SINE RULE
since, the question wants to find the length of BC. In the end we will have 3 sides and 1 angle and use cosine rule
formula of cosine rule:
a² = b² + c² - 2bc Cos A° (to find the length)
Cos A° = b² + c² - a² / 2bc ( to find the angle, if there is given three sides and have to find the angle)
So just substitute,
a² = 13² + 15² - 2(13)(15) Cos 95°
a = 20.6 or 21
