Width --- x 
<span>length --- 2x+4 </span>

<span>(17)(x)(2x+4) = 2720 </span>
<span>x(2x+4) = 160 </span>
<span>2x^2 + 4x - 160=0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 2x - 80 = 0 </span>
<span>(x+10)(x-8) = 0 </span>
<span>x = -10 , which would make no sense </span>
<span>or </span>
<span>x = 8 </span>
<span>The box is 8 inches wide </span>

Answer:

972π in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume (V) of a sphere is calculated as

V = \frac{4}{3}πr³ ← r is the radius

Here r = 9, thus

V = \frac{4}{3}π × 9³ = \frac{4}{3} π × 729 ( divide 3 and 729 by 3 )

   = 4π × 243

   = 972π in³
