Answer: Vu is 15 years old now.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let present age of WU be x.

Then, the present age of Vu = 3x

Also, After 25 years

Age of Wu = x+25

According to the question:

(x+25)=2(3x)\\\\\Rightarrow\ x+25=6x\\\\\Rightarrow\5x=25\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=5

Present age of Vu = 3(5) = 15

Hence, Vu is 15 years old now.

A cube has a side length of x inches. What expression represents the total volume, in cubic inches, of the cube?
Pie

Answer:

Volume = x^3 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A cube is the 3D version of a square. Since one side length is x inches, all the other side lengths are same, x inches each.

We know,

Volume = area of base * height

THe base is a square and the area is side * side. We know each side is x, so we have:

Area of Square = Area of Base = x * x = x^2

Now, we know height is also same side length, x, thus the volume becomes:

Volume = area of base * height

Volume = x^2*x

We add the exponents when we have same base multiplied, so the expression for volume becomes:

Volume = x^2*x=x^3
