9. A shipping company’s research department determined that the cost of shipping rectangular
boxes is represented by (7x 2 +3x - 2) dollars, where x is the height of the box in dm. The
company decides to charge its customers one dollar per dm 3 of volume. If a box must have a
length and a width that are 3dm and 1dm more respectively than the height , what box heights
will result in the company making a profit?
