Question

Which expression represents the volume of the rectangular prism shown?

Answer 1

The second one will have terms all with x and the first one will have three terms... So looks like D is the answer for the first and C is the answer for the second. Does that make sense?

Answer 2

Well what did you multiply together to get your answer?

Answer 3

First multiply (x+3)(x+5)

Answer 4

multiply that product by x and you'll have the first terms x^3 and 8x^2

Answer 5

i got x^2 +8x+ 15

Answer 6

Then multiply (x+3)(x+8) by (x^2) and you'll have the first terms be x^4 and 11x^3 so the answers should be obvious..

Answer 7

oh we were doing different ones

Answer 8

what you got still must be multiplied by x since we're dealing with a 3d object

Answer 9
