Suppose the length of the card board was x cm by x cm
After squares of 4cm was cut from the corner, the dimension for the box will be:
length=(x-8) cm
width=(x-8) cm
height=4 cm
thus the volume will be:
V=length*width*height
V=4×(x-8)×(x-8)=144
x²-16x+64=36
this can be simplified to form a quadratic equation given by:
x²-16x+28=0
solving the quadratic equation we get:
x=2 or x=14
Thus we conclude that the original dimensions was:
length=14 cm ; width=14 cm

Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance that a is to b is b-a=17-2=15.
The line segment from a=2 to b=17 has length 15.
We need to know what is 3/5 of 15.
3/5 of 15 means what is 3/5 times 15?
(3/5)(15)=3(3)=9
So this means we are looking to make a line segment that is 9 units from 2 which is 2 to 11.
So 11 is 3/5 the way from a=2 to b=17.
Let's check from 2 to 11 that is a length of 9 and from 2 to 17 that is a length of 15.
Is 9/15 equal to 3/5?
Yes, 9/15 can be reduced to 3/5.
