In order to solve the equation, set up a proportion. Use the similar sides together!

1. 16/8 = x/20.... Similar sides are in one ratio and they equal another ratio...."x" represents the side of VS

2.Solve for "x" by cross multiplying: 8x = 320

3. Divide by 8 to find "x": x = 40

Side VS equals 40. Hope this helped :)

I’m pretty sure it’s -1
How you solve this is y2-y1/x2-x1
So 5-2/-3-1 which would be -1

Each side of a cube measures 5 cm in length. What is the cubes volume?

AysviL [449]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

Your answer would be 125 cm³

____________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the volume of a cube, we would need to use the right formula to find the volume for it.

Volume of a cube formula:

$V = a^{3}$

For our "a" value, we would need to plug in our side value, and for you case, the side value would be 5.

In a cube, all of the sides would be the same size, so you don't have to worry about using any different numbers.

Lets plug in 5 to our equation.

$V = 5^{3}$

Now we solve:

$5^{3} = 125\\$

This is also the same as:

$5 *5*5 = 125$

Your FINAL answer should be 125 cm³
