The volume of a cuboid is given by the expression x^3- 2x^2- 5x + 6. Given that the height of the cuboid is (x – 3), find the area of the base in terms of x.​

It has a slope of 1 nd a y intercept of -2

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.
