Question

What are the possible expressions for the dimensions of the cuboids whose volume is given below?

Volume : 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k
Sum

Solution

Volume of cuboid = (length) × (width) × (height)

We have, 12ky2 + 8ky – 20k

= 4[3ky2 + 2ky – 5k]

= 4[k(3y2 + 2y – 5)]

= 4 × k × (3y2 + 2y – 5)

= 4k[3y2 – 3y + 5y – 5]

= 4k[3y(y – 1) + 5(y – 1)]

= 4k[(3y + 5) × (y – 1)]

= 4k × (3y + 5) × (y – 1)

Thus, the possible dimensions of the cuboid are 4k, (3y + 5) and (y – 1).
