8. The Toronto Zoo wishes to construct an aquarium in the shape of a rectangular prism such that the length is three times the width and 5 meters greater than the height. If the aquarium must have a volume strictly between 1188 m' and 2496 m, determine the restrictions on the length of the aquarium.
