Answer:

The difference between their volumes is [tex]237.375ft^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The attachment completes the question.

For cube 1:

[tex]s_1 = 8ft[/tex]

For cube 2:

[tex]s_2 = 6.5ft[/tex]

Required

The difference in their volumes

First, we calculate the volume of box 1

[tex]V_1 = s_1^3[/tex]

Substitute 8 for s1

[tex]V_1 = 8^3[/tex]

[tex]V_1 = 512ft^3[/tex]

Next, we calculate the volume of box 2

[tex]V_2 = s_2^3[/tex]

Substitute 6.5 for s2

[tex]V_2 = 6.5^3[/tex]

[tex]V_2 = 274.625ft^3[/tex]

The difference is then calculated as:

[tex]Difference = |V_1- V_2|[/tex]

[tex]Difference = |274.625- 512|[/tex]

[tex]Difference = |-237.375|[/tex]

[tex]Difference = 237.375[/tex]

Hence, the difference between their volumes is [tex]237.375ft^3[/tex]
