Volume is legnth times width times height so 3 dimentions
thee teacher probabl y wants you to factor the trinomial into 3 factors so
x^3+5x^2-24x
first factor out x
x(x^2+5x-24)
then factor
find what 2 numbers multiply to get -24 and add to get 5
the numbers are -3 and 8
x^2+5x-24 factors to
(x-3)(x+8)
the factored form is
(x)(x-3)(x+8)=volume
no dimention can be ≤0 so therefor
x≤0

x-3≤0
add 3
x≤3

x+8≤0
subtract 8
x≤-8

so the values for x is x<3


so if you had the volume, let's say 42 then
x^3+5x^2-24x=42
subtract 42 from both sides
x^3+5x^2-24x-42=0
factor and set each to zero to find the dimentions

1. what two things need to be true in order to add/subtract two radicals ?
Novay_Z [31]

Answer: 1. To add or subtract radicals, the indices and what is inside the radical (called the radicand) must be exactly the same. If the indices and radicands are the same, then add or subtract the terms in front of each like radical. If the indices or radicands are not the same, then you can not add or subtract the radicals.2.The index tells you how many of a kind you need to put together to be able to move that number or variable from inside the radical to outside the radical. For example, if the index is 2 (a square root), then you need two of a kind to move from inside the radical to outside the radical.3.When factoring a trinomial in the form x2 + bx + c, consider the following tips. Look at the c term first. o If the c term is a positive number, then the factors of c will both be positive or both be negative. In other words, r and s will have the same sign.
