A rectangular prism has a volume of 3x2 + 18x + 24. Its base has a length of x + 2 and a width of 3.
Which expression represents the height of the prism?
The answer is the first one because: V(Prism)=S(base) * h V= 3(x^2+6x+8)=3 * (x+2) * h h=x^2+6x+8 / x+2= (x+2)(x+4)/(x+2) So h=x+4 I hope this can help you
