Jordan is tracking a recent online purchase. The shipping costs state that the item will be shipped in a 24-inch long box with a

volume of 2,880 cubic inches. The width of the box is seven inches less than the height.
The volume of a rectangular prism is found using the formula V = lwh, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height

Answer:

A. We are given that the length of the box is equal to 24 as indicted in the "24-inch long". From the given, it is also stated that the width of the box is 7 inches less than the height. If the height of the box is x, the width is then x - 7. The equation that would let us solve the problem is,

                           2880 = 24(x)(x - 7)

Simplifying,

                           2880 = 24x² - 168x

B. The value of x from the equation is 15. Thus, the answer is YES.

How many complex roots does the polynomial equation below have? x^5 - 3 = 0
const2013 [10]

For any polynomial equation, The Fundamental Theorem of Algebra tells you that the highest degree present will tell you how many complex roots the equation has. There are only two terms, "x^{5}" and "3". The x^{5} term has a degree of 5, its exponent. The 3 term has a degree of zero, because you could write it as 3 * x^{0} = 3 * 1 using the zero exponent rule.


The degrees present are 5 and 0. Choose the highest one, 5. So, the answer here is D.
