Question

Represent the following phrase as an algebraic expression, where "a number" is the letter x. You do not need to simplify.

1. The quotient of 8 and the cube of a number

Answer 1

So it says " The quotient of 8 and the cube of the number"
The cube of a number is raised to the power of 3
A quotient of two numbers is dividing the first number by the 2nd sooo
The dividend is 8 and the cube of a x is x^3
And they're asking us to "represent the phrase as algebraic expression"
So we gotta write the expression which would be \[\frac{ 8 }{ x^3}\]
Soo the expression for the quotient of 8 n the cube is \[\frac{ 8 }{ x^3}\]
