Question

The area of the bottom of a shoebox can be written as a(x) = 2x2 - 4 and the height of the shoebox can be written as h(x) = 3x + 2. write an expression to represent the volume v(x) of the shoebox.

a.v(x) = 6x3 - 8

Answer 1

Answer:V(x) = 6x³ + 4x² - 12x - 8

Explanation:

The shoe box can either be cube shaped or cubiod shaped. The volume of the box is length × breadth × height

Since Area = Length × Breadth

Volume = Area × Height

V(x) = A(x) × H(x)

A(x) = 2x² - 4

H(x) = 3x + 2

V(x) = (2x² - 4)(3x + 2)

V(x) = 6x³ + 4x² - 12x - 8
