Here’s a picture of my work. The answer is seven. Hope this helps :-)
Answer:
Surface area of cube =6× l^2 (where l is the side of cube)
Therefire 6×9^2=6×81
=486in^2
When the number is positive, its opposite is less than the number.
9 ==> -9 . . . . . . less
72 ==> -72 . . . . less
324 ==> -324 . . less
When the number is negative, its opposite is greater than the number.
-8 ==> 8 . . . . . . greater
-3/4 ==> 3/4 . . . greater
-429 ==> 429 . . greater .
We've seen that the opposite can be less, and it can also be greater.
I guess that means that it's sometimes greater.
