A rectangular piece of metal is 9 in. longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 3 in. long are cut from the four​ corners, and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box. Which equation indicates that the volume of the box is 80 in. cubed​?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be = w

The length will be = w+9

And height h = 3 inches ( side of square =3 in)

Volume = l x w x h

According to question

[tex]80 = w(w+9)3\\3w^2+27w-80=0[/tex]

So, this equation indicates that the volume of the box is 80 in.
