Question

Mr. Wonka optimized your team’s box to maximize chocolate bar sales. The new volume is (x^3-9x) inches ^3, the length is (x+3) and the height is x inches. What is the width of his new box?

Answer 1

Answer:

$x^2-3x$

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use polynomial division

          $x^2-3x$

$x+3$ | $x^3+0x^{2} -9x$

          $x^3+3x^2$              

                $-3x^2-9x$

                $-3x^2-9x$
