Answer 1

The difference between the length of the sides of the fish tank is guy Harvey's restaurant and a fish tank in gift shop is 2 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

The cube shaped fish tank in guy Harvey's restaurant has volume 64 cubic feet.

Volume of the cubic tank is given by,

V =
`l^(3)`

64 =
`l^(3)`

l =
`\sqrt[3]{64}`

l = 4 feet

The cube shaped fish tank in the gift shop is 8 cubic feet

Volume of the cubic tank is given by,

v =
`a^(3)`

8 =
`a^(3)`

8 =
`\sqrt[3]{8}`

a = 2 feet

The difference between the length of the sides is given by,

d = l - a

d = 4 - 2

d = 2 feet

The difference between the length of the sides of the fish tank is guy Harvey's restaurant and a fish tank in gift shop is 2 feet.
