A Tara added two inches to the height, length and width of the cube.
B Tara added two inches to the height of the cube.
C Tara doubled the measurements of the cube's height, length and width.
D Tara doubled the measurement of the cube's height.

Answer 1

answer D

Explanation:

V=L*W*H=1 ==> L=1,W=1,H=1

A:

L-> L+2=1+2=3

W -> W+2 = 1+2=3

H -> H+2=1+2=3

V=3*3*3=27 not the doubled of the volume's cube

A is false

B:

H -> H+2=1+2=3

V=1*1*3=3 not the doubled of the volume's cube

B is false

C:

H -> 2*H=2*1=2

L -> 2*L=2*1=2

W -> 2*W = 2*1=2

V=2*2*2=8 not the doubled of the volume's cube

C is false

D:

H-> H*2=1*2=2

L=1

W=1

V=1*1*2=2 is the doubled of the volume's cube

D is true
