Suppose the length of the card board was x cm by x cm
After squares of 4cm was cut from the corner, the dimension for the box will be:
length=(x-8) cm
width=(x-8) cm
height=4 cm
thus the volume will be:
V=length*width*height
V=4×(x-8)×(x-8)=144
x²-16x+64=36
this can be simplified to form a quadratic equation given by:
x²-16x+28=0
solving the quadratic equation we get:
x=2 or x=14
Thus we conclude that the original dimensions was:
length=14 cm ; width=14 cm
I: 2x+y=5
II:3x+2y=4
start by eliminating y
-2*I: -4x-2y=-10
II: 3x+2y=4
add both equations together
-2*I+II: -4x-2y+3x+2y=-10+4
-1x=-6
x=6
insert x=6 into I:
2*6+y=5
y=5-12
y=-7
so the solution is x=6, y=-7
