Ok so
1 find volume of 1 cube
2. find total volume of rectangular prism

1/2 m cubes
volume=side^3
side=1/2m (I guess since that was what was given)
v=1/2^3=1/8

so
volume of 1 cube times number of cubes=total volume
1/8m^3 times number of cubes=5m^3
multiply both siides by 8/1 m^3 to clea fraction (since 8/1 times 1/8=8/8=1)
number of cubes=40

needs 40 cubes

5. The dimensions, in inches, of a shipping box at We Ship 4 You can be expressed as width x, length x + 5, and height 3x - 1. T

meriva

The volume of a cuboid is given by length × width × height

We have:

Volume = 7.6 ft³
Height = 3x - 1
Length = x + 5
Width = x

Substituting these into the formula, we have:

7.6 = (3x - 1) (x + 5) (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 15x - x - 5] (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 14x - 5](x)
7.6 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x
0 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x - 7.6

Drawing the graph is one way of finding the solution (refer to the graph below):

We have three solutions (where the curve crosses the x-axis):
x = -4.9
x = -0.6
x = 0.8

Putting these solutions back into the context, since we are looking for the value of x which is part of measurement of length, we cannot have negative value, so we will take the value of x = 0.8 ft

Converting 0.8 ft into inches = 0.8 × 12 inches = 9.6 inches

Answer: x = 9.6 inches
