Answer:

8 floors

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of employees is directly proportional to the number of floors that each building has.

The first building has 32 floors and it occupies 189 employees. Therefore:

189 α 32

=> 189 = k * 32 = 32k

where k = constant of proportionality

=> k = 189/32

The new building has 50 employees, therefore:

50 = kN

where N = number of floors

=> 50 = 189/32 * N

N = (50 * 32) / 189 ≅ 8 floors

The new building should have 8 floors

If a cube has a<br> volume of 8 cm<br> what is it's side<br> length?
lana [24]
Side length: 2 cm.

Volume of a cube:
V=a^3
(where V is volume, and a is side length)

If v=8, the formula would now be 8=a^3

Take the cube root of both sides

a=2.
