Answer:
27 ft^3
Step-by-step explanation:
The total surface area of the cube is 54 ft^2.
A cube has 6 congruent square sides.
54 ft^2/5 = 9 ft^2
Each square side has area 9 ft^2.
The area of a square is the square of the side, so the side of a square is the square root of the area.
side = sqrt(9 ft)^2 = 3 ft
The volume of a cube is the cube of the side.
volume = (3 ft)^3
volume = 27 ft^3
Set up an equation to solve.
$8.50x (since it is the rate of change) + $12 (flat fee) = total money earned (or y). In this case, we have the total, amount, and are looking for x. Plug $139.50 into the equation.
$8.50x + $12 = $139.50
Now, solve for x.
$8.50x + $12-12 = $139.50-12 > <em>$8.50x = $127.5</em>
$8.50/8.50x = $127.5/8.50 > <em>x = 15</em>
