The length of one side, s, of a shipping box is s(x) = 2x−−−√3, where x is the volume of the box in cubic inches. A manufacturer needs the volume of the box to be between 108 in.3 and 256 in.3. What are the minimum and maximum possible lengths of s?

Look, when you want to do something like put it like x^2. x2 could mean x² or x₂. so to clear confusion, know the notation. to find the product multiply the x's and you get -8x and the y's and you get 6y. since it's all being multiplied it is just -8x6y, or answer a. although the better answer is -48xy(combining -8 and 6) because you should multiply constants whenever you can.
