<PRE><B>Question 330246</B>
the volume of a box is {{{5p^4 + 32p^3 + 35p^2 }}} 
The height is p, and the width is p+5. What is the length?
;
Find the area of the base by factoring out the height (p)
A = 5p^3 + 32p^2 + 35p
:
Divide the area by the width, (p+5) to find the length
:
we can use synthetic division for this
:
