Find the dimensions of the box described.
The length is 5 inches more than the width. The width is 2 inches more than the height. The volume is 264 cubic inches.
length ________in
width _________in
height ________in
let the length = x , width = y, height = z
The length is 5 inches more than the width
.
The width is 2 inches more than the height
and the volume is V=264 cubic inches.
.
volume is given by
here we have
here z=4 is a root so take a synthetic division
find discriminant
here discriminant is negative so expression has complex roots
therefore our correct answer is

A box currently has length and width of 10 inches and a height of 3 inches. Use calculus to determine at what rate the height changes, if the length and width are decreasing at a rate of 2 inches per minute and the volume of the box is constant. (6 points)
A box measures 4.35 ft in length, 0.03899 yd in width, and 8.12 inches in height. Determine its volume in cubic centimeters.
(1) A box has a height of 6 inches, a width of 4 inches, and a length of 10 inches (and therefore a volume of 240 cubic inches). The height is decreasing at a rate of 0.5 inches per minute, the width is increasing at a rate of 2 inches per minute, and the length is increasing at a rate of 1 inch per minute. At what rate is the volume changing? Car A travels East towards the intersection of...

A box with an open top has a length of x centimeters, width of y centimeters, height of z centimeters, and fixed volume of 125 cubic centimeters. The box is divided into two equal parts along its height. The bottom part is divided into two equal parts along its length. One of these parts is divided into two equal parts along its width. The sturdy material used for the base of the box costs $4 per square centimeter, and the...
