the volum of a box is 810 cu.inches.the base of the box is square shaped and the height is 1 inch more than the length of the base.what are the dimension of the box
--------------------
Volume = L*W*H = 810
Since the base is square, V+=+s%5E2%2Ah
V+=+s%5E2%2A%28s%2B1%29+=+810
s%5E3+%2B+s%5E2+-+810+=+0
The only possible square factors of 810 are 9 and 81, and 81*10 = 810
Subbing 9 for s fits the equation.
--> It's 9 by 9 by 10
