A piece of cardboard measuring 8 inches by 9 inches is formed into an open-top box by cutting squares with side length x from each corner and folding up the sides. Find a formula for the volume of the box in terms of x

V(x) =

Find the value for x that will maximize the volume of the box

x =

Maybe fx = lxl because of the way the x is positioned is that what he

Answer to your question: a. the fundamental theorem of algebra tells you that the equation will have two complex roots since the degree of the polynomial is 2. the roots are ​ x=1±i7√2 .number of roots=degree of polynomialhere, degree of polynomial is 2 so number of roots will be 2.hope it *_*
