Answer:
n = -15 and n = 9. n = -15 is not reasonable because you can't have negative boxes or negative units of measurement.
Step-by-step explanation:
8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144
(n + 2)(n + 4) = 143
n^2 + 2n + 4n + 8 = 143
n^2 + 6n - 135 = 0
(n + 15)(n - 9) = 0
n + 15 = 0
n = -15
n - 9 = 0
n = 9
I got two solutions: n = -15 and n = 9. Only one is reasonable because you cannot have a negative number of boxes or negative weight.
Hope this helps!
