Three hundred thousand
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
I had this exact question.
Volume of the box= <span>56 cubic inches
let x is the length, then
width =</span><span>2 inches shorter than its length = x - 2
</span>height = <span>3 inches taller than its length = x+3
Volume = length x width x height
56 = x x (x-2) x (x+3)
56 = (x</span>² -2x)(x+3)
56 = x³ +3x² -2x² - 6x
56 = x³ + x² -6x
x³+x²-6x-56 = 0
using the rational root theorem and factoring the polynomial;
(x-4)(x² +5x +14) = 0
from here;
x-4 = 0
x = 4
So, length = 4 inches
width = x - 2 = 4 -2 = 2 inches
length = x + 3 = 4 + 3 = 7 inches
volume = l x w x h = 4 x 2 x 7 = 56
Distribute: 3x+6+4=5x+7
Simplify: 3x+10=5x+7
Subtract 3x from both sides: 10=2x + 7
Subtract 7 from both sides: 3=2x
Divide by 2: x=3/2
x=3/2
