Question

A cube-shaped gift box has a volume of 1000 cubic inches. Solve s³ = 1000 to find the lengths of one side of the box.

s=__in.

Answer 1

Take the cube root of both sides of the equation s^3 = 1000 when you do that the 3 in the cube root index will cancel with the exponent 3 over the s variable and on the other side you will have the cube root of 1000 under the cube root symbol and the answer resolves to s = 10 I hope this helps
