Question

brenna goes on a cave tour with her family.she spots a mysterious crystal that is shaped like a cube the crystal has edge lengths of 5 centimeters what is the volume of the crystal

Answer 1

Answer:

The volume of the crystal is $V=125 \:cm^3$.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume enclosed by a cube is the number of cubic units that will exactly fill a cube.

To find the volume of a cube recall that a cube has all edges the same length. The volume of a cube is found by multiplying the length of any edge by itself three times. Or as a formula

                                                         $V=s^3$

where:

s is the length of any edge of the cube.

From the information given we know that the crystal has edge lengths of 5 centimeters. Therefore, the volume of the crystal is

$V=5^3=125 \:cm^3$.
