Recall the equation that modeled the volume of the raised flower bed, y, in terms of the width of the box, y = x3 + 11x2 − 312x. Now, open the graphing tool and graph the equation. Remember, this equation represents the volume of a flower box, so neither the width nor the volume can be negative. Using the pointer, determine the x-intercept where the width is positive and the volume will change to positive as x increases.
