Hidden Faces Coursework A cube a total of 6 sides, when it is places on a surface only 5 of the 6 faces can be seen. However if you place 5 cubes side by side, there is a total of 30 faces, but out of this 30 only 17 can be seen. In this coursework I will be finding out the global formula for the total number of hidden faces for any number of cubes in any way positioned. To find this out I will be testing various numbers of cubes in different positions. This will enable me...
find out the surface area of the two different sized sides, I will have to do length multiplied by width for one and width multiplied by height for the other. But because these surfaces are in pairs I will have to multiply them both by two. This will give me the final formula.

The formula shown above is used to work out hidden faces in any number of cubes in any formation.
This concludes my coursework and I reached my target, which was to find the global formula by only using three formulae.
Introduction The aim of this investigation is to find what affects the price of used cars. To investigate this I have created four hypotheses. Hypotheses 1 The greater the mileage the greater the reduction in price. 2 The older the car, the more reduction in price....
