Question

The volume of a rectangular prism is (x3 – 3x2 + 5x – 3), and the area of its base is (x2 – 2). If the volume of a rectangular prism is the product of its base area and height, what is the height of the prism?

Answer 1

V = Bh  where B is the Base area.

 

Therefore (x³ – 3x² + 5x – 3) = (x² – 2)h, so h must be V/B, that is, divide (x² – 2) INTO (x³ – 3x² + 5x – 3) .

 

Can you take it from there (polynomial long division)?
