The information provided is that you have smaller cubes that measure 1 cm on either of the three sides. In order words if you lie each cube side by side you would have the length/width/height of the indicate sides.

For a cube made up of 27 smaller cubes, you can determine the length of each side by factoring the entire size provided. That means for a cube made up of 27 smaller cubes you would have;

27=3\times3\times3

This means you would have 3 smaller cubes on the length, 3 smaller cubes on the width and 3 smaller cubes on the height.

Therefore, if you now have 150 of the smaller cubes, by factoring this you would have the following possibility;

\begin{gathered} 150=2\times3\times5\times5 \\ 150=6\times5\times5 \end{gathered}

This means you would have one side (length) 6 cubes, on another side (width) 5 cubes and on the third side (height) 5 cubes.

That means with 150 smaller cubes you could make a cube with the dimensions,

\begin{gathered} \text{Length}=6\operatorname{cm} \\ \text{Width}=5\operatorname{cm} \\ \text{Height}=5\operatorname{cm} \end{gathered}

ANSWER:

The largest big cube you could make would be a 6 cm by 5 cm by 5cm big cube

What is the y-coordinate of the solution to this system of equations?<br> 5x-8y=1<br> 3x+6y=-21
Vanyuwa [196]

5x-8y=1...(1)
3x+6y=-21...(2)

(1)*3:
15x-24y=3...(3)

(2)*5:
15x+30y=-105...(2)

(3)-(2):
15x-24y-(15x+30y)=3-(-105)
15x-24y-15x-30y=108
-54y=108
y=-2

The y-intercept is the y value where the blue line crosses the Y axis which is the vertical black line.

The line crosses at the number 4, so the y-intercept is 4
