Cubed

Cubed: “In arithmetic and algebra, the cube of a number n is its third power: the result of the number multiplied by itself twice: n3 = n × n × n. It is also the number multiplied by its square: n3 = n × n2. This is also the volume formula for a geometric cube with sides of length n, giving rise to the name. The inverse operation of finding a number whose cube is n is called extracting the cube root of n. It determines the side of the cube of a given volume. It is also n raised to the one-third power. Both cube and cube root are odd functions: (−n)3 = −(n3). The cube of a number or any other mathematical expression is denoted by a superscript 3, for example 23 = 8 or (x + 1)3. The grap...View all
