Answer:

Dimensions are 8 Inches by 14 inches by 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is 2240. This means:

lbh = 2240

Where b is the width.

Width is two inches less than twice the height

b = 2h - 2

length is 4 inches less than 3 times the height

l = 3h - 4

Substituting these parameters into the lbh equation will yield the following:

h * (3h - 4) * (2h - 2) = 2240

h[6h^2-14h+8] = 2240

6h^3 -14h^2 + 8h - 2240= 0

Solving this cubic equation will yield one of the values to be 8. The other two values are complex numbers.

b = 2h - 2

l = 3h - 4

b = 2(8) - 2 = 14

l = 3(8) - 4 = 20

Wilbur sold half of his comic books and then bought fourteen more. he now has 24. how many did he begin with?
rosijanka [135]
First, subtract 24 - 14 to get how many books he had after he sold half of his collection and bought 14 more:

24 - 14 = 10

10 = number of books after he sold half of his collection.

Now, you need to multiply 10 x 2, because you need to find the original number of comic books:

10 x 2 = 20

He originally had 20 comic books.

An equation you could use for this question is:

2(24 - 14) = x. (X = number of comic books)

Hope this helps!!
