A sculpture is created with colored blocks each with a volume of 1 cubic foot. What is its volume if the sculpture is 12 feet long, 5 feet wide and 8 feet high?

480 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can calculate the volume of the sculpture with the data they give us in the statement.

The volume would be the multiplication between the length, width and height, that is:

v = l * w * h

we know that l = 12 ft; w = 5 ft; h = 8 f, replacing:

v = 12 * 5 * 8

v = 480

in other words, the volume of the sculpture is 480 cubic feet, therefore 480 color blocks are needed because its volume is 1 cubic foot.

Step-by-step explanation:

x2-5x+18*2-5x+18

we group like teams

x2-5x-5x+18+18*2

-8x+18+36

-8x+54
