Answer:

B'C' = 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The dilation performed makes ∆A'B'C' (sketched flag) similar to ∆ABC (actual flag).

Given that, A'B' = 8 units, AB = 24 ft, and BC = 6 ft, therefore:

A'B'/AB = B'C'/BC

Substitute

8/24 = B'C'/6

Cross multiply

24*B'C' = 8*6

24*B'C' = 48

B'C' = 48/24

B'C' = 2 units

and 8 cubed is 512

but if you round from 8.041451517 to 8.04, and you cube it, it equals 519.718464

and if you round that up it would equal 520

or 519.71

so it depends on how you do it
