Question 1 • OK-Algebra II A

Which expressions are perfect cubes?

Answer
A
–1,000
B
27r21
C
343p
D
g3h30
E
–1

Explanation

A perfect cube has a numerical factor that is a cube and variable exponents that are multiples of 3. Since −1,000 = (−10)³, choice A is a perfect cube; 27r²¹ = (3r⁷)³, so B is one as well. Also, g³h³⁰ = (gh¹⁰)³, and −1 = (−1)³, making D and E perfect cubes. Choice C, 343p, is not a perfect cube because the exponent of p is 1, not a multiple of 3.
