Carissa takes a square piece of cardboard and cuts 5 in. by 5 in. squares out of each corner. she folds the sides up to make a box without a top.

what equation can carissa use to determine the volume of the box, where x is the side length of the original piece of cardboard?

The volume of the new cardboard is cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the sides of the original square cardboard = x inches

Since, Carissa cuts 5 in. by 5 in. squared out of each corner.

We have that,

Length of new cardboard = inches

Width of new cardboard = inches

Height of the new cardboard = 5 inches

So, Volume of the new cardboard = Length × Width × Height

i.e. Volume of the new cardboard =

i.e. Volume of the new cardboard = cubic inches.

Thus, the volume of the new cardboard is cubic inches.

to plot points   for x just start at the origin (middle) and go to the left however many times it say(if the number is a positive) if the number is a negative then go right however many times it says if it is 0 go nowhere

now keep you pencil there and go up however many times it says on y(if it is positive) if it is negative then go down however many times it says. if it says 0 go nowhere.

you have just plotted a point! now when you finish plotting all of them connect them with a ruler

plot each point as (-3, 7), (0,4), (3,1), (8,-4)   in the parenthesis on the left of the comma is x and the right is y.
