Algebra 2 question? please!!!

Answer 1

You work for the BeeSwaks Candle Company and have been asked to update two of the company’s earliest candle designs, the Brick and the Egyptian. The original Brick was a cube 8 centimeters on a side. The original Egyptian was a pyramid 21 centimeters tall with a square base 10 centimeters on a side.

Improvements in the manufacturing process have made it possible to change the design of these candles for a fresh new look and improved profit. You have been asked to work within the following guidelines:

Name The Brick The Egyptian
Shape rectangular prism right square pyramid
Base dimensions can vary, but it must be a square same dimensions as base of the Brick
Height 1 cm less than the side length of the base 21 cm

You are preparing for a meeting with BeeSwaks executives in which they will make decisions about the how many candles to make, final design details, and retail prices for each candle.
Answer the questions below. When you are finished, submit this to your teacher by the due date for full credit.

Create a labeled diagram of the Brick. Use x to represent the length of a side of the base of the candle. Then write an equation for the volume of the candle in terms of x. Write the polynomial in standard form.
