Question

can you help me with my a question, "A fish tank is in the shape of a cube. Its volume is 125ft (cubed). What is the area of one face of the tank?"

Answer 1

Given data

*The given volume is V = 125 ft^3

The formula for the volume of the cube is given as

`V=a^3`

*Here 'a' is the side of the cube.

Substitute the known values in the above expression as

`\begin{gathered} 125=a^3 \\ a=5 \end{gathered}`

The formula for the area of one face of the tank is given as

`A=a^2`

Substitute the known values in the above expression as

`\begin{gathered} A=(5)^2 \\ =25\text{ }ft^2 \end{gathered}`
