Question 6 • Algebra 2 with Probability

The function s times cap v is equal to cube root of cap v describes the side length, in units, of a cube with a volume of cap v cubic units. Jason wants to build a cube with a minimum of 64 cubic centimeters. What is a reasonable range for s , the side length, in centimeters, of Jason’s cube?

Answer
A
s is greater than or equal to 8
B
s is greater than 0
C
s is greater than or equal to 4
D
s is greater than or equal to 16

Explanation

The side length is the cube root of the volume, so a cube with volume 64 cubic centimeters has side length ∛64 = 4 centimeters. To have at least 64 cubic centimeters, Jason’s cube must have a side length of at least 4 centimeters, which matches “s is greater than or equal to 4.”
