The formula s= SA/6 squared gives the length of the side, s, of a cube with a surface area, SA. How much longer is the side of a

stiv31 [10]

The surface area (SA) of a cube can be written as:

SA = 6s²

From here we can write, the length of the side s as:

$s= \sqrt{ \frac{SA}{6} }$

For cube with surface area of 1200 square inches, the side length will be:

$s= \sqrt{ \frac{1200}{6} }=10 \sqrt{2}$ inches

For cube with surface area 768 square inches, the side length will be:

$s= \sqrt{ \frac{768}{6} }=8 \sqrt{2}$ inches

The difference in side lengths of two cubes will be:

$10 \sqrt{2} -8 \sqrt{2}=2 \sqrt{2}$

Rounding to nearest tenth of an integer, the difference between the side lengths of two cubes will be 2.8 inches.
