Cats to dogs means that the first number is cats and the second number is dogs. Thus, you have the ratios 2 cats to 5 dogs and 5 cats to 2 dogs which are different.

If they are both ratios of cats to dogs, with the ratio 2 to 5 it would mean there are 2.5x more dogs then there are cats, but with the ratio 5 to 2 it would mean there are 2.5x more cats than there are dogs, in which they are both different.

The length of the box is x
Romashka [77]

A polynomial that represents the volume of the Amazon box is; V(x) = x³ - 6x² + 5x

<h3>How to calculate the volume of a box</h3>
  • Length of box = x
  • Width of the box is 4 inches less than the length. Thus; width = x - 4
  • Height is said to be 1 inch less than the width. Thus; height = x - 4 - 1 = x - 5

Now, the formula for volume of a box is;

V = length × width × height

Thus;

V = x • (x - 1) • (x - 5)

V = x(x² - x - 5x + 5)

V = x(x² - 6x + 5)

V(x) = x³ - 6x² + 5x

In conclusion, the polynomial that represents the volume of the Amazon box is V(x) = x³ - 6x² + 5x
