Answer:
A) Vol_10_cubes = 2*(5^4) inch^3
B) Area_10_cubes = (2^2)*3*(5^3) inch^2
Step-by-step explanation:
A)The volume of a cube, as all sides are equal:
Vol_cube = (side)^3
side = 5 inches
Vol_cube = 5^3 inch^3
Since we have 10 cubes
10 = 2*5
Vol_10_cubes = 2*(5^4) inch^3
B) A cube has six faces, each with area equal to its squared side
Area_cube = 6*(side)^2
Area_cube = 6*(5)^2 inch^2
Area_10_cubes = 2*5*6*(5)^2 inch^2
Area_10_cubes = (2^2)*3*(5)^3 inch^2
