Amelia stores her gardening supplies in two cube-shaped-boxes. the smaller box has a volume of 100 in.^3. Amelia wants to know the total volume of both boxes.
s = length (in) of one side of the larger box.
Write an expression to show the total volume of the two boxes
Total volume = s^3 + 100
what is the total volume of both boxes if s equals 8 inches
Total volume = (8)^3 + 100
Total volume = 512 + 100
Total volume = 612 in^3
Therefore, the total volume of both boxes is 612 cubic inches.
