Answer:

$\boxed {\tt 6 \ centimeters}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube can be found using the following formula:

$v=s^3$

where $s$ is the side length, or edge.

We know the volume is 216 cubic inches. We can substitute 216 cm³ in for $v$ , the volume.

$216 \ cm^3 = s^3$

We want to find the side length. Therefore, we must isolate the variable, $s$ .

s is being cubed. The inverse of a cube is the cube root. Take the cube root of both sides of the equation.

$\sqrt[3]{216 \ cm^3} =\sqrt[3]{s^3}$

$\sqrt[3]{216 \ cm^3} =s$

$6 \ cm=s$

The length of each edge of the cube is 6 centimeters.

Volume of a cube = (edge)^3

In this problem,

Volume = 216in^2

Edge = ?

Let's plug our values into the formula above.

216in^3 = (edge)^3

Take the cbrt of both sides.

6in = edge

The length of each edge = 6in

Answer:

4) $\frac{x}{7\cdot x +x^{2}}$ is equivalent to $\frac{1}{7+x}$ for all $x \ne -7$ . (Answer: A)

5) $\frac{-14\cdot x^{3}}{x^{3}-5\cdot x^{4}}$ is equivalent to $-\frac{14}{1-5\cdot x}$ for all $x \ne \frac{1}{5}$ . (Answer: B)

6) $\frac{x+7}{x^{2}+4\cdot x - 21}$ is equivalent to $\frac{1}{x-3}$ for all $x \ne 3$ . (Answer: None)

7) $\frac{x^{2}+3\cdot x -4}{x+4}$ is equivalent to $x - 1$ . (Answer: None)

8) $\frac{2}{3\cdot a}\cdot \frac{2}{a^{2}}$ is equivalent to $\frac{4}{3\cdot a^{3}}$ for all $a\ne 0$ . (Answer: A)

Step-by-step explanation:

We proceed to simplify each expression below:

4) $\frac{x}{7\cdot x +x^{2}}$

(i) $\frac{x}{7\cdot x +x^{2}}$ Given

(ii) $\frac{x}{x\cdot (7+x)}$ Distributive property

(iii) $\frac{1}{7+x} \cdot \frac{x}{x}$ Distributive property

(iv) $\frac{1}{7+x}$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property/Result

Rational functions are undefined when denominator equals 0. That is:

$7+x = 0$

$x = -7$

Hence, we conclude that $\frac{x}{7\cdot x +x^{2}}$ is equivalent to $\frac{1}{7+x}$ for all $x \ne -7$ . (Answer: A)

5) $\frac{-14\cdot x^{3}}{x^{3}-5\cdot x^{4}}$

(i) $\frac{-14\cdot x^{3}}{x^{3}-5\cdot x^{4}}$ Given

(ii) $\frac{x^{3}\cdot (-14)}{x^{3}\cdot (1-5\cdot x)}$ Distributive property

(iii) $\frac{x^{3}}{x^{3}} \cdot \left(-\frac{14}{1-5\cdot x} \right)$ Distributive property

(iv) $-\frac{14}{1-5\cdot x}$ Commutative property/Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property/Result

Rational functions are undefined when denominator equals 0. That is:

$1-5\cdot x = 0$

$5\cdot x = 1$

$x = \frac{1}{5}$

Hence, we conclude that $\frac{-14\cdot x^{3}}{x^{3}-5\cdot x^{4}}$ is equivalent to $-\frac{14}{1-5\cdot x}$ for all $x \ne \frac{1}{5}$ . (Answer: B)

6) $\frac{x+7}{x^{2}+4\cdot x - 21}$

(i) $\frac{x+7}{x^{2}+4\cdot x - 21}$ Given

(ii) $\frac{x+7}{(x+7)\cdot (x-3)}$ $x^{2} -(r_{1}+r_{2})\cdot x +r_{1}\cdot r_{2} = (x-r_{1})\cdot (x-r_{2})$

(iii) $\frac{1}{x-3}\cdot \frac{x+7}{x+7}$ Commutative and distributive properties.

(iv) $\frac{1}{x-3}$ Existence of multiplicative inverse/Modulative property/Result

Rational functions are undefined when denominator equals 0. That is:

$x-3 = 0$

$x = 3$

Hence, we conclude that $\frac{x+7}{x^{2}+4\cdot x - 21}$ is equivalent to $\frac{1}{x-3}$ for all $x \ne 3$ . (Answer: None)

7) $\frac{x^{2}+3\cdot x -4}{x+4}$

(i) $\frac{x^{2}+3\cdot x -4}{x+4}$ Given

(ii) $\frac{(x+4)\cdot (x-1)}{x+4}$ $x^{2} -(r_{1}+r_{2})\cdot x +r_{1}\cdot r_{2} = (x-r_{1})\cdot (x-r_{2})$

(iii) $(x-1)\cdot \left(\frac{x+4}{x+4} \right)$ Commutative and distributive properties.

(iv) $x - 1$ Existence of additive inverse/Modulative property/Result

Polynomic function are defined for all value of $x$ .

$\frac{x^{2}+3\cdot x -4}{x+4}$ is equivalent to $x - 1$ . (Answer: None)

8) $\frac{2}{3\cdot a}\cdot \frac{2}{a^{2}}$

(i) $\frac{2}{3\cdot a}\cdot \frac{2}{a^{2}}$

(ii) $\frac{4}{3\cdot a^{3}}$ $\frac{a}{b}\cdot \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a\cdot b}{c\cdot d}$ /Result

Rational functions are undefined when denominator equals 0. That is:

$3\cdot a^{3} = 0$

$a = 0$

Hence, $\frac{2}{3\cdot a}\cdot \frac{2}{a^{2}}$ is equivalent to $\frac{4}{3\cdot a^{3}}$ for all $a\ne 0$ . (Answer: A)

Tim made 3 gal 1 qt of trail mix. His guests ate 1 gal 3 qt of the trail mix. Then Tim packed the rest of the trail mix in 1-pin

Naily [24]

3 gal 1 qt = 416 oz, 1 gal, 3 qt= 224 oz.
416 - 224 = 192
192 ÷ 16. oz = 12 containers
