Hmmm.. I need to get something for Matthew. It's his birthday tomorrow. Hmm.. What does he want, but doesn't have?
Oh, wait! He has been wanting a rubik's cube for a long time! I should get him that.
However. I only have 5 square yards of wrapping paper.
I should get help. Luckily. I know a person.
Yeah. So my problem is:I wanted to buy a rubik's cube for Matthew's birthday. However. I only have 5 square yard of wrapping paper. I need to find a cube that I can fit inside that wrapping paper.
So, you call because of a math problem?
Elena, Clara's classmate and friend
So, that question is a Radical Expression. We learned that in class last week. But, I'll help you. So the formula for th-
Clara:WAIT, WAIT, WAIT, DON'T TELL ME HOW TO SOLVE IT!
Just trying to understand it is hard for me. I need you to show, not tell! Like, write them on a board!
Elena:Hmmm.. I don't feel like writing. I need you to think for me. Now, close your eyes and picture the formula and the solving process.
Elena:Okay. Now, picture this..
So. You wanted to buy a rubik's cube. But you only have a 5 square yards of wrapping paper..
RUBKI'S CUBE
FIVE SQUARE YARDS OF WRAPPING PAPER
So the formula for the cube with the longest edge length [S] you can buy is s equal square root of A over 6, where s is the edge length, and A is the surface area.
S
A 6
So the 5 yard is the surface area. So you place the 5 where the A is. So now you get s equal square root of 5 over 6.
S
5 6
Now, onto the solving. You first divide. So 5 divide by 6 is equal to 0.8333 and so on. That's a repeating number.
S
0.8333
Lastly. You square root the quotient. the square root of 0.8333 is 0.9128 and so on.
S
0.9128
Lastly. You square root the quotient. the square root of 0.8333 is 0.9128 and so on.
0.9128
