2) Franco is building a small jewelry box in the shape of a rectangular prism for his mom. He wants the height of the box to be 5 cm. He wants the length of the base to be 10 cm longer than the width of the
base.

a. If the width of the base is x, write an expression for the length of the base.
b. Write an algebraic expressionſto represent the volume of the box. Simplify your expression.
C Franco decides that the width of the box should be 8 cm. Use your simplified algebraic expression from
part b. to calculate the volume of the box when the width of the base, x = 8 cm.
d. If x = 8 cm, what are the dimensions of the box? Use the dimensions to find the volume of the box...
e. Compare the volumes from parts c. and d. Should the volumes be the same? Explain
