Question 142030This question is from textbook Blitzer College Algebra
: I'm really in a bind. Started a new job this week and am hopelessly behind on homework, due at midnight tonight! Book is an e-book, out of paper and black ink! ISBN info above is from answer book for this course, but problem isn't even from the book.
The volume of a cube is given by V=s^3, where s is the length of a side. Find the length of a side of a cube if the volume is 800 cm^3. Round answer to 3 decimal places. (I can figure out the rounding part, lol)

You can put this solution on YOUR website! The volume of a cube is given by V=s^3, where s is the length of a side. Find the length of a side of a cube if the volume is 800 cm^3.
--------------
V=s^3
Substitute to get:
800 cm^3 = s^3
s = cube root of (800 cm^3)
s = 2*(cube root of (100) cm
s is approximately 2*4.6416
s is approximately 9.2832
