When the lengths of the edges of a cube are doubled, the volume of the cube is quadrupled? true or false

OpenStudy (bobbyleary):

False. If the length of one side is x, then the volume is x*x*x or x^3. Now if you double the side to 2x, then you have (2x)*(2x)*(2x), or 8x^3. This shows that the volume has increased by 8 times the original amount.
