Question

Find the height of a pyramid whose volume is 500 cubic inches and whose area base is 50 square inches.

Answer 1

Answer:

30 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition,

volume of a pyramid = (Base Area x height ) / 3

or

500 = (50 x h ) / 3

50h = (500) (3)

h = (500)(3) / (50) = 30 inches

Answer 2

Answer:

h=30in

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a pyramid whose volume is 500 cubic inches and whose area base is 50 square inches is 30inches.

Formula: V = Ab h/3

h=3 V/Ab = 3 ⋅ 500/50 = 30 inches
