The side length, s, of a cube is 3x + 2y. If V = s3, what is the volume of the cube?
Solution:
As given in the problem statement the volume
V = s3 --- (1)
Where s = length of the side of the cube and a cube has all sides equal.
As per the given problem the length of the side of the cube is given as
s = 3x + 2y --- (2)
(V) = length × Breadth × Height
= s3
Hence the volume is obtained by substituting (2) in (1). We get
V = (3x + 2y)3 = 27x3 + 36xy2 + 54x2y + 8y3.
The side length, s, of a cube is 3x + 2y. If V = s3, what is the volume of the cube?
Summary:
If the side length s of a cube is 3x + 2y and V = s3, then the volume of the cube is 27x3 + 36xy2 + 54x2y + 8y3.
