Remark
A cube has six sides, all of them equal. The formula for 1 side is s^2. The formula for all six = 6s^2.
Step One
Find the surface area of the larger cube.
Area = 6 *s^2
s = 15
Area = 6 *15^2
Area = 6 * 225
Area = 1350
Step Two
Find the area of the smaller cube
Area = 6s^2
Area = 6 * 12^2
Area = 6 * 144
Area = 864
Step Three
Find the difference
Area1 - Area2 = difference
1350 - 864 = 486
The difference is area = 486 units^2 <<<<< Answer
There is a slightly shorter way. Take out the common factor of 6
Difference = 6 * (15^2 - 12^2)
Difference = 6 * (225 - 144)
Difference = 6 * (81)
Difference = 486
Hi there!

Our interval is from 0 to 3, with 6 intervals. Thus:
3 ÷ 6 = 0.5, which is our width for each rectangle.
Since n = 6 and we are doing a right-riemann sum, the points we will be plugging in are:
0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3
Evaluate:
(0.5 · f(0.5)) + (0.5 · f(1)) + (0.5 · f(1.5)) + (0.5 · f(2)) + (0.5 · f(2.5)) + (0.5 · f(3)) =
Simplify:
0.5( -2.75 + (-3) + (-.75) + 4 + 11.25 + 21) = 14.875
Answer: it is 15
