Answer:
24s^2, 54s^2, 96s^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the initial side length of the cube. Then the area of each face of the cube is A = 6s^2 (recalling that the area of a square of side length s is s^2).
a) Now suppose we double the side length. The total area of the 6 faces of the cube will now be A = 6(2s)^2, or 24s^2 (a 24 times larger surface area),
b) tripled: A = 6(3s)^2 = 54x^2
c) quadrupled? A = 6(4s)^2 = 96s^2
Answer:
<em>630 cups</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
This problem is most easily solved backward, i.e., from the final data up to the beginning.
There was a new box of cups and the worker at a snack stand opened it. He first used 30 cups from the box and the second day he uses 15% of the remaining cups in the box, and we are told that represents 90 cups.
If 15% (0.15) equals 90 cups, then the number of cups before the second day was 90/0.15 = 600 cups.
On the first day, we used 30 cups, thus the original number of cups in the box was 600+30=630 cups
