Lily was building towers with her Legos. The first
tower that she built had only 1 Lego. The second
tower had 8 Legos. The towers that she built after
that had 27 and then 64 Legos, How many Legos
would the 100th tower have

My son is asking how to get the answer?

Answer 1

The function appears to be L(legos) = T(tower)^3

L = T^3

This checks out for t =1,2,3,4

The 100th tower would have 100^3 legos.

100^3 = 1,000,000.

The 100th tower would have 1 million cubes
