(5) Are there other shapes that would hold the same volume yet have even less surface area? Let's explore this. Look up any formulas needed on the Internet. (a) Consider a cube shape for a drink container. A cube has all side lengths the same. In order to hold a volume of 370 cm³, what must the side length be to the nearest hundredth? Once you know the side length, use it to determine the total surface area for this cube drink container. the minimum surface area you found? Would this container be better? Explain.
