Make sure you specify what your final answer is EX. (my answer=___) because I do not want to give the best answer to someone who is wrong This is easier than it seems ENJOY before the age of technology the library was over flowing with books. then during one decade each book was stored on microfiche. this new storage space was equal to the cube root of the old space. in the next decade the microfiche were converted to diskettes this new storage space was equal to the square root of the previous space finally in this decade each tape has been changed over to a compact disc. the current space is about 23 percent of the previous space. if the current space is equal to 3 books how many books were in the old library???????

okay so the first=cubed root (X3 lol computer won't put 3 above x I don't mean times three) root of old space, next-square root of the previous space (obviously smaller, and obviousl the X3 had to be a number when square root to = a real number not something like 23.4) next= 23% of the square root of the x3 of the orginal) current=3/.23 (divide so to get a bigger number) X itslef (oposite of square root) x3. okay I think I atleast explained it right, if not atleast I made it seem like I was thinking.

my answer= 210.

this is an easy problem, which leads me to believe that it's your homework, kid. and for another thing, if you are going to ask for help, don't try and dupe people by claiming it's worth thirty points. 1) no one cares, 2) its insulting to our intelligence, 3) it's a lie, and 4) it's STILL not going to get you answers on your homework. now, if you hadn't gone off and done that, i might tell you how to do the problem so you could solve it yourself, but i really don't have the interest now.
