7. A right circular cylinder with height 80 cm is filled with water so that it is half
full. A cube is dropped into the cylinder and the water level rises 8 cm.
Assuming that the cube sinks to the bottom of the cylinder, and assuming the
full cylinder can hold one liter (1000 cm3) of water, find the length (in cm) of the cube to the
nearest hundredth.
8. Suppose there is a bug at point A, and a sugar cube at point B. What is the shortest distance the
