Problem:
The volume of a rectangular box is 12cm^3. It has a square base and its height is 1 cm more than its width. Find the dimension of the box.

Assumptions:
let x=measurement of one side of the square base.
and x+1cm= the height

Since the volume of a rectangular box is LWH. L=W because it has a square base. My solution would be:
LWH=12cm^3
x*x(x+1cm)=12cm^3

Then,
x^3 + (x^2)cm =12cm^3
x^3 + (x^2)cm = 12cm^3
x^3 + (x^2)cm - 12cm^3=0

I don't know what will be the next step....

Are my assumptions and solution wrong?
Could anybody give me any alternative way on solving this problem. Thanks alot again. =D

I have had a trip planned and I am sort-of the organizer, because I know the area and points of interest. This was planned 2 months before I get notice that my sister is Baptizing her son the day I leave. She says it is ok if I miss, but what should I do??
I could leave later, which would delay others, because I was driving, reschedule, but many went out of their way to get days off, or go with my original plans. No matter what, someone will be inconvenienced other than myself. Advice??

I love organizing, design and decorating. I have no formal training in any of it but if HGTV gave degrees I think I would have a doctorate, as well as real life experience solving real problems with real money. I have a good eye but no real sewing or building skills. I am an excellent bargain hunter and shopper and I am very creative and crafty.

I am in the helping professions right now and facing burnout. My jobs have always been therapy related, and oddly enough, in some way it has always been in someone's home...nanny, group homes, homeless and women's shelters where my organizing skills were greatly appreciated. But the meat of my career is listening and caring and helping them meet their own life goals.

I don't think it is such a far stretch really, do you? I don't really want to freelance or run a home business...would a design firm hire me? I'm not thinking about a froofroo company, I would want to work with real people in real spaces, emphasis on the pretty but practical.

Okay, I'll be the first to admit it: I'm being a chicken about going to the dentist, but considering the way the last dentist mangled my jaw, you'd be scared, too. Anyway, I have a couple of problems:
Several of my molars have, over time, broken-off down at or below the gumline (old fillings/crowns breaking off). Generally, they cause no trouble, and I brush them. But, one is giving me a bit of a bad time in the last two days, sharp pain that lasts briefly, then goes away. The gums have mostly grown over them. If I have them pulled, will it hurt worse than pulling a normal, non-impacted wisdom tooth? At my age (49) how much pain will I be in afterward? Two days? Three? And would these require surgery, or can the dentist just cut the gum and pop 'em out with an elevator? Last dentist to use an elevator shattered part of the maxilla! OOWWWWW!
Nobody in my family can tolerate gen. anesthesia (we get VERY ill), so I'm pretty scared. I'm also pretty broke!
Serious answers appreciated.

Who's your favorite Beatle? John, George, Paul, Ringo? My Favorite is Paul. I think he's an amazing singer and a very good songwriter. He's was pretty cute back then, too. John is a close second. A very gifted man.

As a former Argentine death squad I must herald my outrage about what is going on on Argentina.An honorable chaplain, Christian Von Wernich, is accused of torture and crimes.I think this is the first time on History that this happens ( I´m not talking about childs abuse ). He was very useful to US and Argentine Giverments as he used to pose as "the good - one" as gave us information to figure out the net of Terrorists...
He was a good man also, He told us not to apply not more than 150 volts during torture.US Govt must defend him !

situation.....My dad was in the hospital last year and almost died. I was with him for about 45 days during this time i missed approx 2 payments on all my loans( car loan, 2 personal loans, 2 credit cards, and a 4 wheeler loan) Once i returned home I quickly returned everything to normal, or so i thought. Now over a year later I have all of the above paid off except for my car but i got denied for a loan the other day when i went to trade my car in. i got several letters and they all said the same thing. Past or present delinquincies. now this was just 2 missed payments that were corrected before any went to collections. whats the deal here if they are paid off?
