Let x represent the side length of the squares.
We have been given that an open box is made from an 8 by ten-inch rectangular piece of cardboard by cutting squares from each corner and folding up the sides. We are asked to find the volume of the box.
The side of box will be
and
.
The height of the box will be
.
The volume of box will be area of base times height.

Now we will use FOIL to simplify our expression.


Now we will distribute x.


Therefore, the volume of the box would be
.
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
You need to work backwards to solve this equation!
9 - 17 = -8
w / -4 = -8
32 / -4 = -8
Which means that w = 32
2 weeks, because the first week the second plant will grow to 6 inches and the first plant will grow to 7, the next week the first plant will be 8 inches and so will the second plant.
