To completely cover a cube,Joey uses a total area of 486 square inches of material. To the nearest whole cubic inch, what is the maximum volume the box could have? Pls help me and fast

The maximum volume the cube could have is 729 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of the cube equals the total area of material used.

Let A = total surface area of cube = 6L² where L = length of side of cube

Since A = total area of material used, A = 486 in²

So 486 in² = 6L²

L = √(486 in²/6)

= √81 in²

= 9 in

The volume of the cube V = L³ where L = length of side of cube

So, V = (9 in)³

= 729 in³

So the maximum volume the cube could have is 729 cubic inches.
