Respuesta :

Answer:

The difference between the length of the sides of the fish tank is guy Harvey's restaurant and a  fish tank in gift shop is 2 feet.

Explanation:

The cube shaped fish tank in guy Harvey's restaurant has volume 64 cubic feet.

Volume of the cubic tank is given by,

V = [tex]l^{3}[/tex]

64 = [tex]l^{3}[/tex]

l = [tex]\sqrt[3]{64}[/tex]

l = 4 feet

The cube shaped fish tank in the gift shop is 8 cubic feet

Volume of the cubic tank is given by,

v = [tex]a^{3}[/tex]

8 = [tex]a^{3}[/tex]

8 = [tex]\sqrt[3]{8}[/tex]

a = 2 feet

The difference between the length of the sides is given by,

d = l - a

d = 4 - 2

d = 2 feet

The difference between the length of the sides of the fish tank is guy Harvey's restaurant and a  fish tank in gift shop is 2 feet.
