Algebra.Com's Answer #641398 by Alan3354(69443)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! all areas of a cube increase by a factor of 3/2. how many times greater is the surface area. \n" ); document.write( "It's 1.5 times the area (given). \n" ); document.write( "That's 0.5 times greater, or 50% greater. \n" ); document.write( "----------- \n" ); document.write( "how many times greater is the volume? \n" ); document.write( "Area is a function of the square of the edge length. \n" ); document.write( "(3/2)x area --> sqrt(3/2) edge length. \n" ); document.write( "--- \n" ); document.write( "Volume is a function of the cube of the edge length. \n" ); document.write( "--> Volume is increased by a factor of \n" ); document.write( "= Vol is \n" ); document.write( "--> an increase of \n" ); document.write( "====================================== \n" ); document.write( "PS x times greater = (x+1) times as great. \n" ); document.write( "----- \n" ); document.write( "eg \n" ); document.write( "Vol is 4x greater --> Vol + 4*Vol = 5*Vol \n" ); document.write( " |
