A rectangular prism has a volume of 40 cm cubed. The height of the prism is 8 cm. The length is 4 cm longer than the width and the width is x cm. Find the dimensions of the prism

Respuesta :

V = L,w,h 
w = width 
w - 2 = height 
w + 4 = length 
8(w + 4) = V 

8(w + 4) = w(w - 2)(w + 4) 

Solve for w Answer = -2
