Power Functions and Polynomial Functions · Exercise 77

Use the written statements to construct a polynomial function that represents the required information.

A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide. Squares of side 2 feet are cut out from each corner. Then the sides are folded up to make an open box. Express the volume of the box as a function of the width ( ).

Its source prints no answer for this problem, so there's nothing to check against.
