Answer:
D The volume of a cube increases by a factor of 8 when its edge length doubles
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cube is represented by the function
[tex]V(x)=x^3[/tex]
where [tex]x[/tex] represents the edge length of the cube
Now when [tex]x=2x[/tex] i.e., when the edge length is doubled we have
[tex]V(2x)=(2x)^3\\\Rightarrow V(2x)=8x^3\\\Rightarrow V(2x)=8(V(x))[/tex]
It can be seen that the volume of the cube increased by 8 times when edge length doubles.
