The volume of a rectangular prism is represented by the function x3 + 9x2 + 6x − 16. the length of the box is x + 2, while the height is x + 8. find the expression representing the width of the box.

width = (x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the prisms is defined in the problem as

Volume = x^3 + 9x^2 + 6x − 16

Volume  = width*height* length

And we know that,

length = (x+2)

height = (x+8)

We can find the roots of the equation, which happen to be

x = -8

x = -2

x = 1

(See image below)

This means that the volume can be represented as

Volume = x^3 + 9x^2 + 6x − 16 = (x+8)(x+2)*(x-1)

Therefore,

The width = (x-1)

the answer is 3/2 and for decimal: 1.5
