Question

The volume of a rectangular prism can be found by multiplying the three side lengths. A bookcase in the shape of a rectangular prism has dimensions (b+8) ft, b ft, and (b+3) ft. Find the volume of the bookcase​

Answer 1

Answer:

(b³+11b²+24)ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the rectangular prism = Length * Width * Height

Given the dimension

Length = b+8 ft

Width = b ft

Height = (b+3)ft

Volume of the rectangular prism = b(b+8)(b+3)

Volume of the rectangular prism = b(b^2+3b+8b+24)

Volume of the rectangular prism = b(b^2+11b+24)

Volume of the rectangular prism = b(b^2)+b(11b)+1(24)

Volume of the rectangular prism = b^3+11b^2+24

Hence the Volume of the rectangular prism is (b³+11b²+24)ft³
