Question

What is the volume of a cube with side length twelve feet?

seventy-two cubic feet

one hundred forty-four cubic feet

eight hundred sixty-four cubic feet

one thousand seven hundred twenty-eight cubic feet

Answer 1

Okay the volume of a cube is found using this formula: v=s^3
s^3 is the same as s x s x s where s is the length of one of the sides

Answer 2

sorry bu what does ^ mean? >.<

Answer 3

it means to a power, sorry do you know what happens if you square something?

Answer 4

No,

Answer 5

err maybe

Answer 6

Okay when you square something, you multiply the number by itself

Answer 7

oh so like 311. it would be 311 x 311?

Answer 8

or 311 x 1

Answer 9

Yes exactly

Answer 10

k

Answer 11

nono you had it right, but since it is asking for l*w*h to find volume, we must multiply the side length times itself 2 times instead of just once

Answer 12

so s^3 would be s = 3?

Answer 13

no, s^3 is s*s*s where s is the length of one side

Answer 14

k

Answer 15

Since 12 is the length of the side, s=12

Answer 16

12 x 3

Answer 17

Not exactly, remember I said it is a number multiplied to itself?

Answer 18

would it be 12x12 or 3x3?

Answer 19

It is the same thing you did before like 311*311 just after you calculate that, you multiply it again

Answer 20

im thinking 12?...

Answer 21

Yes 12 is right since s=12

Answer 22

12x12 that is

Answer 23

So after you do 12*12 you multiply that answer *12 again and that is the volume

Answer 24

so 12x12 is 144

Answer 25

144 x 12 is1728

Answer 26

That is one of your answer choices

Answer 27

164 cubic feet

Answer 28

How did you get that?

Answer 29

is it the right one? or should i calculate again? 1728

Answer 30

V=12^3=1728 he is right

Answer 31

k

Answer 32

tks

Answer 33

No problem
