Since the object is a cube, times 42 three times by itself. You have to do this because it is length x width x height. 42 x 42 x 42. The answer you're looking for is 74,088 cubic inches because it is three-dimensional.
Answer:
y= 0,-2
Hope this helps!
Is the question your asking the one at the bottom
The trick is to write appropriate equations and then solve the system of equations you've created.
"sum of two numbers is -5:" x + y = -5
"difference is -1:" x-y = -1
Add these two equations together. This will cause y to drop out, and you will be left with an equation in x alone:
2x = - 6, so x = -3. Subst. -3 for x in either equation, above, and find the corresponding y value.
Then write your solution as (-3, y ) (write in your value for y).
