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}

PLEASE HELP QUICK!! WILL OFFER 100 POINTS TO THE FIRST ONE THAT ANSWERS
Reil [10]

Given

x+1 = \sqrt{7x+15}

We have to set the restraint

x+1\geq 0 \iff x \geq -1

because a square root is non-negative, and thus it can't equal a negative number. With this in mind, we can square both sides:

(x+1)^2=7x+15 \iff x^2+2x+1=7x+15 \iff x^2-5x-14 = 0

The solutions to this equation are 7 and -2. Recalling that we can only accept solutions greater than or equal to -1, 7 is a feasible solution, while -2 is extraneous.

Similarly, we have

x-3 = \sqrt{x-1}+4 \iff x-7=\sqrt{x-1}

So, we have to impose

x-7\geq 0 \iff x \geq 7

Squaring both sides, we have

(x-7)^2=x-1 \iff x^2-14x+49=x-1 \iff x^2-15x+50 = 0

The solutions to this equation are 5 and 10. Since we only accept solutions greater than or equal to 7, 10 is a feasible solution, while 5 is extraneous.
