You just need three numbers that multiply to make 48. Because the volume of a rectangular prism is abh.
1 1 48
2 1 24
3 1 16
4 1 12
6 1 8
2 3 8
2 2 12
2 4 6
3 4 4
3 2 8
etc
Answer:
28 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
It's perimeter so you add (6x2)+(8x2)
The x2 is because there's 2 of each side
x =
or x = - 
consider the factors of the product 6 × - 4 = - 24 which sum to the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)
the factors are + 8 and - 3 ( split the middle term using these factors
6x² - 3x + 8x - 4 = 0 ( factor by grouping )
3x(2x - 1) + 4(2x - 1 ) ( take out common factor of (2x - 1) )
= (2x - 1)(3x + 4) = 0
equate each factor to zero and solve for x
2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 
3x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = -
