Let x be the width of the cardboard (which means the length of the cardboard is x+88), then the dimensions of the box are:
Length = [(x + 88) - 2(33)]
Width = x - 2(33)
Heighth = 33
Volume = length · width · heighth
144,144 = [(x + 88) - 2(33)] · [x - 2(33)] · 33
144,144 = (x+22)(x-66)(33)
4368 = (x+22)(x-66)
4368 = x² - 44x - 1452
0 = x² - 44x - 5820
use the quadratic formula to calculate that x = 101
Answer: cardboard width = 101, cardboard length = 189
Step-by-step explanation:
remember the priorities of the different mathematical operations
1. brackets
2. exponents
3. multiplications and divisions
4. additions and subtractions
so,
14 + 14/7 = 14 + 2 = 16
= (3 * 1.25 * 2)/(0.25) ^ 3
= 7.5/(1/64)
= 480 boxes
Good luck :)
