Andy is designing a dice tray in the shape of a rectangular prism to use during a role-playing game. the tray needs to be three centimeters high and have a volume of 252 cubic centimeters in order for the dice to roll properly. the length of the tray should be five centimeters longer than its width.

the volume of a rectangular prism is found using the formula v = l · w · h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.

complete the equation that models the volume of the tray in terms of its width, x, in centimeters.
