It would be amazing if someone could explain the intersection between A and B on problem number 12.  I have so far the squares being 31 and the cubes being 10.  But I am not sure how to get the intersection.  Any ideas?  Also I do not understand 20 or 28 at all.  If someone could please help me out that would ROCK!  Thanks

I think that if you want numbers between 1 and 1,000 that are both cubes and squares you'd do (1,000)^1/6

#12 in 7.5

It would be amazing if someone could explain the intersection between A and B on problem number 12. I have so far the squares being 31 and the cubes being 10. But I am not sure how to get the intersection. Any ideas? Also I do not understand 20 or 28 at all. If someone could please help me out that would ROCK! Thanks

Possible Solutions

I think that if you want numbers between 1 and 1,000 that are both cubes and squares you'd do (1,000)^1/6 but thats just my guess because when you want,


how many squares: (1,000)^1/2 = 31

how many cubics: (1,000)^1/3= 10

so how many squares and cubics: (1,000)^1/6 = 3


12. A: # of squares: 31 B: # of cubics: 10 A intersection B: 3

31+10-3=38

#28 in 7.5

Can someone rephrase the question or shed some light on what this question is asking? I looked at the solution for #29 which seems to be quite similar, but it was a notation we haven't learned in class.
