Answer:

(a)

V=x^3+x^2-9x-9

(b)

x=10

(c)

x=\frac{7}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

length is x+1

L=x+1

width is x+3

W=x+3

height is x-3

H=x-3

(a)

we can use volume formula

V=L\times W\times H

now, we can plug it

V=(x+1)\times (x+3)\times (x-3)

now, we can simplify it

V=x^3+x^2-9x-9

(b)

we are given volume =1001

so, we can set V=1001

and then we can solve for x

V=x^3+x^2-9x-9=1001

now, we can factor it

\left(x-10\right)\left(x^2+11x+101\right)=0

x-10=0

x=10

(b)

we are given volume

so, we can set

V=14\frac{5}{8}=\frac{14\times 8+5}{8}

V=\frac{117}{8}

and then we can solve for x

V=x^3+x^2-9x-9=\frac{117}{8}

now, we can factor it

8x^3+8x^2-72x-189=0

\left(2x-7\right)\left(4x^2+18x+27\right)=0

2x-7=0

x=\frac{7}{2}

In this problem, we need to plug in the given x values for f(x)=0 and find a and b.

When we plug in 1, we get: 2 \times {1}^{4} - 5 \times {1}^{3} - 14 \times {1}^{2} + a \times 1 + b = 0

Simplify:
2 - 5 - 14 + a + b = 0
- 17 + a + b = 0
a + b = 17

We got our first statement about the values of the variables. If we find one more we can find those 2 variables.

We have another given root: 4.

Plug it in:
2 \times {4}^{4} - 5 \times {4}^{3} - 14 \times {4}^{2} + a \times 4 + b = 0
512 - 320 - 224 + 4a + b = 0
- 32 + 4a + b = 0
4a + b = 32

Now we have our second one. We can combine them:
a + b = 17 \\ 4a + b = 32

I use elimination method which is easier here.

Multiply the top equation by -1: - a - b = - 17 \\ 4a + b = 32

Add them up:
3a = 15

Simplify:
a = 5

Now we have a, we can plug in one of those equations to find b:
5 + b = 17
b = 17 - 5
b = 12

So, the answers are a=5 and b=12 .
