Constructing a Box: A rectangular piece of cardboard, whose area is 216 square centimeters, is made into an open box by cutting a 2-centimeter square from each corner and turning up the sides. See the figure. If the box is to have a volume of 224 cubic centimeters, what size cardboard should you start with?

Verify that the values of the variables listed are solutions of the system of equations.
Solve each system of equations. If the system has no solution, say that it is inconsistent.
In Problems 23–34, graph each system of linear inequalities by hand. Verify your results using a graphing utility:
In Problems, use the division algorithm to rewrite each improper fraction as the sum of a quotient and proper fraction. Find the partial fraction decomposition of the proper fraction. Finally, express the improper fraction as the sum of a quotient and the partial fraction decomposition.
