One day, you noticed that there are many shoes scattered in front of your door. You cannot throw or donate these away because your family members are still using them. There is a vacant space inside your house, so you decided to organize it by making a simple rectangular cabinet. 1. Draw a design for your cabinet. 2. Label the width of your cabinet as x. 3. If you want the length to be 2 feet greater than the width, how will you represent it in terms of x? Label it in your drawing. 4. If the volume of your cabinet is (x3 + 6x² + 8x) cubic feet, how will you represent the height in terms of x? 5. Based from the given conditions, give one possible dimension for your cabinet.
