The volume of a shape is the amount of space in it.
- The expression that represents the volume of one table leg is:
- The sides of the legs is 14.37 inches long
<u>(a) The volume of one table leg</u>
Represent the side length of the leg with l, and the side length of the notch with n.
So, the expression that represents the volume of one table leg is:
<u>(b) The length of the sides</u>
From the question, we have:
Express 40% as decimal
Substitute 0.4l for n in
The volume of the 4 legs is given as: 12636
So, the volume of one leg would be 12636/4
So, we have:
Divide both sides by 1.064
Take cube roots of both sides
Hence, the sides of the legs is 14.37 inches long
