Sagot :
Volume of cube, V = edge^3
Let edge of cube#1 = (x-4) m, therefore volume of cube#1, v1 = (x-4)^3 m
Let edge of cube#2 = x m, therefore volume of cube#2, v2 = x^3 m
Diff. in volume (in m) = 1216 = v2-v1 = [ x^3 - (x-4)^3 ]
= x^3 - [(x-4)(x-4)(x-4)]
= x^3 - [x^2 - 8x +16(x - 4)]
= x^3 - [ x^3 - 12x^2 + 48x - 64 ]
= 12x^2 - 48x + 64
= 4 (3x^2 - 12x + 16)
Therefore 4 (3^2 - 12x + 16) = 1216
3x^2 - 12x + 16 = 1216/4 = 304
3x^2 - 12x - 288 = 0
3 (x^2 - 4x - 96) = 0
(x^2 - 4x - 96) = 0
(x - 12) (x + 8) =0
(x-12) = 0
Therefore x = 12 m
Edge of cube#2 = x m = 12m
Edge of cube#1 = (x-4) m = 8m
Let edge of cube#1 = (x-4) m, therefore volume of cube#1, v1 = (x-4)^3 m
Let edge of cube#2 = x m, therefore volume of cube#2, v2 = x^3 m
Diff. in volume (in m) = 1216 = v2-v1 = [ x^3 - (x-4)^3 ]
= x^3 - [(x-4)(x-4)(x-4)]
= x^3 - [x^2 - 8x +16(x - 4)]
= x^3 - [ x^3 - 12x^2 + 48x - 64 ]
= 12x^2 - 48x + 64
= 4 (3x^2 - 12x + 16)
Therefore 4 (3^2 - 12x + 16) = 1216
3x^2 - 12x + 16 = 1216/4 = 304
3x^2 - 12x - 288 = 0
3 (x^2 - 4x - 96) = 0
(x^2 - 4x - 96) = 0
(x - 12) (x + 8) =0
(x-12) = 0
Therefore x = 12 m
Edge of cube#2 = x m = 12m
Edge of cube#1 = (x-4) m = 8m
