Answer:
- width: 1.9 ft
- length: 2.3 ft
- height: 1.7 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectilinear shape is given by ...
V = W·L·H . . . . . where W, L, and H represent width, length, and height
Filling in the given information, we want to find a solution to ...
7.4 = x(x +0.4)(x -0.2)
If we write ...
f(x) = x(x +0.4)(x -0.2)
Then we're looking for the value of x that satisfies ...
f(x) -7.4 = 0
The attached graph shows that value to be 1.897, about 1.9 (feet). Then the desired kennel dimensions are ...
- width: 1.9 ft
- length: 2.3 ft
- height: 1.7 ft
