distance between points / volume of cube w/ side 'x'

[ellkennew]

I have 200 questions to complete, and I'm stuck on a few algebra problems.

1) Find the distance between the two points (-4, -2) and (2, 3).

2) Write a variable expression for the volume of a cube whose side length is "x".

Re: CALCULATE DIST; VAR EXPRESSION FOR CUBE

FIND THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE TWO POINTS (-4,-2), (2,3)

If the two points are (a,b) and (c,d) then

distance = \(\displaystyle sqrt{(a-c)^2 + (b-d)^2}\)

WRITE A VARIABLE EXPRESSION FOR THE VOLUME OF A CUBE WHOSE SIDE LENGTH IS X.

What grade are you in?

Are you saying you do not know how to calculate volume of a cube?
