Question

A cube has side length
a. The side lengths are decreased to 30% of their original size. Write an expression in simplest form for the volume of the new cube in terms of
a.

Answer 1

Answer:

.027(a^3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube is s^3, where s is the sidelength

We plug in .3a for s, because the sidelength has been reduced to 30% of a.

We get (.3a)^3 = .027(a^3)

Answer 2

Answer:

.027(a^3)
