Not sure what Familiarize,Translate, Carry Out, Check and State To Solve means either. But let's give it a go
Familiarize - You are given the dimensions of a rectangular box and asked to find the expression that is the volume of that box.
Translate - The volume of a rectangular box with Length L, Width W and Height H is given by . The dimensions on this box are given to you as , and .
So
Carry Out - Just grind out the math now
To verify, pick a value for x and then solving for V using our equation and then solving again by finding L W and H
Let x = 5 (need to pick a value for x that makes all thee dimensions positive)
So L = 27, W=17 and H = 1. The volume is then = 459
Using our equation
so it works
