A cube has an edge of 2.25 feet. The edge is increasing at the rate of 1.25 feet per hour. Express the volume of the cube as a function of h, the number of hours elapsed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the volume of a cube is given by:

Where s is the side length of the cube.

The edges of the cube has an original length of 2.25 feet. It increases by 1.25 feet per hour. In other words, the length s after h hours can be modeled by the equation:

Substitute. Hence, our function is:

step-by-step explanation:

because 1/3 is a fraction. we can tell because there is a divisor symbol between the 1 and the 3. if we were to add 2 fractions together, we would add the numerators, which is the number on top, but not the denominators, which is the number on the bottom

1/3+1/3=2/3

hope this !
