Question #11

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i need help !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay well whats your formula to find the area of a cube?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

S = 6s^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then just plug your numbers in

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmm okay , i'll try that.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

S = 6(2x+1)^2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Area of a cube=\[A=s ^{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay then , A = 2x+1^3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do i figure that out?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[A=(2x+1)^{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[A=(2x+1)(2x+1)(2x+1)\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A=6x+1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or A = 8x+1 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Its going to be messier than that, cause your X is going to be cubed in the end.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so how do i find out what my final answer will be ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[8x ^{7}+6x+1\] Will be your answer I believe. I'm not 100% sure though, I did this stuff years ago.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

My bad it'll be \[2x ^{5}+6x ^{2}+6x+1\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OH MY GOODNESS ! thank you soo much for your help .

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You're welcome, I hope it's correct! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks .
