Question

1.Measure and record the length, width and height of the rectangular box you have chosen in inches. Round to the nearest whole number.


2.Apply the formula of a rectangular box (V = lwh) to find the volume of the object.

Now suppose you knew the volume of this object and the relation of the length to the width and height, but did not know the length. Rewriting the equation with one variable would result in a polynomial equation that you could solve to find the length.


3.Rewrite the formula using the variable x for the length. Substitute the value of the volume found in step 2 for
