Question

Olive has a plastic container shaped like a cube to put slime in. She measures one side and finds that it’s 0.5 foot long. Use the formula V = s3 to determine how many cubic feet of slime will fit in her container. PLEASE HELP!

Answer 1

0.125 cubic feet

Explanation:

Since the container has a shape of a cube with a measure of its side 0.5 ft, then;

Volume of the container, V =
`s^(2)`

where s is the measure of its side.

s = 0.5 ft, then;

V =
`(0.5)^(3)`

= 0.125

V = 0.125 cubic feet

The cubic feet of slime that would fit in the container is 0.125.
