Algebra.Com's Answer #80681 by ptaylor(2198)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! V=LWH where L is length, W is width and H is height\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Area of the bottom=LW\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So \n" ); document.write( "LWH=(x^2+5x+6)(x+5) but note that x^2+5x+6 can be factored: \n" ); document.write( "The factors are (x+3)(x+2)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Since we are told that x+2 is the height, then the length and width must be:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "(x+3)(x+5) so:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Area of bottom =LW=(x+3)(x+5)\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Hope this helps---ptaylor \n" ); document.write( " |
