Answer:

2 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a cube of sidelength L has a volume:

V = L^3

Here, we know that the volume of water that the cube can hold is:

(1000/125) m^3

Then the volume of our cube is exactly that:

V = (1000/125) m^3

Then we have the equation:

L^3 = (1000/125) m^3

Which we can solve for L

L = ∛((1000/125) m^3 ) = (∛1000/∛125) m

Where we used that:

∛(a/b) = ∛a/∛b

Solving the cubic roots, we get:

L = (10/5) m = 2m

The length of the side of the water tank is 2 meters.

By comparing all the options with the formula of sum of cubes and difference of cubes we get that $(x+4)\left(x^{2}-4 x+16\right)$ is sum of cubes

<h3>What is formula of sum of cubes and difference of cubes?</h3>

Formula of sum of cubes and difference of cubes are following

$(a+b)(a^2 -ab +b^2) = a^3+ b^3 \\\\\\(a - b)(a^2+ ab+ b^2) = a^3 - b^3$

(a)

$(x-4) \left(x^{2}+4 x-16\right)\\=(x-4) \left(x^{2}+4 x-4^2\right)\\\\$

by comparison with formula we can say that this is neither sum or nor difference of cubes.

(b)

$(x-1)\left(x^{2}-x+1\right)\\=(x-1)\left(x^{2}-x+1^2\right)$

by comparison with formula we can say that this is neither sum nor difference of cubes.

(c)

$(x+1)(x-1)=x^{2}-1^{2}\\$

we can say that this is neither sum nor difference of cube as it's difference of squares.

(d)

$(x+4)\left(x^{2}-4 x+16\right)\\\\(x+4)\left(x^{2}-4 x+4^2\right)$

by comparison with formula this is equal to

$x^{3}+4^{3}\\$

Hence this is sum of cubes

(e)

$(x+4)\left(x^{2}+4 x+16\right)\\(x+4)\left(x^{2}+4 x+4^2\right)$

by comparison with formula we can say that this is neither sum nor difference of cubes.

By comparing all the options with the formula of sum of cubes and difference of cubes we get that $(x+4)\left(x^{2}-4 x+16\right)$ is sum of cubes
