Question 811995: a 120 in cubed box has a length 2" more than its width, and a height 3" more than its length. write and solve a polynomial equation to find the dimensions of the box. Answer by richwmiller(17219) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Sorry but a cube has all sides equal.
Maybe you mean 120 cubic inch box
l=w+2,
h=l+3,
l*w*h=120
(W+2)*W*(W+2+3)=120
W (W+2) (W+5) = 120
W (W^2+7W+10) = 120
W = 3
l=5
h=8
