Answer: The height of the stacked boxes is 31 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the Volume of a cube = (side)³

The volume of first box = 1331 cubic meters,

⇒ (side)³ = 1331

⇒

Similarly, the side of second box = 11 meters ( Because, both boxes have the same volume )

Now, the volume of third box = 729 cubic meters

⇒ ⇒ (side)³ = 729

⇒

Thus, the height of the stacked boxes = Side of first box + side of second box + side of third box

= 11 + 11 + 9

= 31 meters.

The volume of a box with dimensions x by x by x is  x^{3}.

So if we are given the volume V of a cube-shaped box, the side length of thit is \sqrt[3]{V}.

So we calculate the cubic roots of the volumes we have, and we add their heights.

To calculate the cubic root of 729, we can factorize it, and group the perfect cubes together, as follows:

\frac{729}{3}= \frac{600}{3} + \frac{120}{3} + \frac{9}{3}=200+40+3=243

\frac{243}{3}= \frac{240}{3}+ \frac{3}{3}=80+1=81, which we recognize as 3^{4}

so 729=3*3* 3^{4}= 3^{6}= ( 3^{2} )^{3}= 9^{3}

similarly 1,331 can be found to be 11^{3}.

Thus we have 2 boxes with side length equal to 11 m and one with side length equal to 9 m.


Answer: h= 11+11+9 = 31 (meters)

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

9


Discussion:

Solution 1:

Distance between two points (x1, y1), (x2,y2) is given by the formula

sqrt(  (x1-x2)^2 + (y1-y2)^2).  In our case this becomes

sqrt( (0-0)^2 +  (12 -3)^2 ) =

sqrt( 9^2) =

9.


Solution 2:

Note points D and E both have x = 0 so segment DE is a vertical segment. The length is simply the difference of the y coordinates: 12- 3 = 9 as before.


Thank you,

MrB
