Question

the deer creek aquarium has a special cube - shaped tank for its jellyfish. each edge of the tank is 8 meters long. which equation can you use to find the volume of the tank, v? v = 8 + 8 + 8 v = 8·8·8 what is the volume of the tank? cubic meters

Explanation:

Step1: Recall volume formula for cube

The volume formula for a cube is $V = s\times s\times s$, where $s$ is the side - length. Here $s = 8$ meters. So the correct equation is $V=8\times8\times8$.

Step2: Calculate the volume

$V = 8\times8\times8=512$ cubic meters.

Answer:

The equation is $V = 8\cdot8\cdot8$.
The volume of the tank is 512 cubic meters.
