A delivery truck service needs to transport 75 boxes. The boxes are all cubes with a side length of 18 in. How much space will the service need to transport the boxes? Use the formula for the volume of a cube.(1 point)

3 answers

The formula for the volume of a cube is V = s^3, where s is the side length of the cube.

In this case, the side length is 18 in.

V = (18 in)^3
V = 18^3
V = 5832 cubic inches

Since there are 75 boxes, the total space needed to transport the boxes is:

75 boxes x 5832 cubic inches = 437,400 cubic inches

Therefore, the delivery truck service will need 437,400 cubic inches of space to transport the 75 boxes.

I apologize for my mistake in the previous calculation. Let's correct it:

Given:
Side length of each cube (s) = 18 in
Number of boxes = 75

Volume of a cube = s^3

Volume of each box = 18^3 = 5832 cubic inches

Total volume needed to transport 75 boxes:
Total volume = Volume of each box × Number of boxes
Total volume = 5832 in^3 * 75
Total volume = 437,400 in^3

Therefore, the delivery truck service will need 437,400 cubic inches of space to transport the 75 boxes. Thank you for pointing out the error.
