Question 701890: How would I find the volume of a box using a polynomial equation if I'm told that one of the sides of the base of the box = x, and one vertical edge plus one side of the base = 20in. The base is a square.
I know that v= L*W*H, and the length and width both = x, but how do I find the height?
