Question

the volume of the rectangular pyramid is ___ cubic units.(the app will not let me add any pictures of the pyramid. i have no clue why. if i get into a session with someone could i send you the numbers shown on the shape?)

Answer 1

The area of a pyramid is given by:

$V=\frac{1}{3}\cdot l\cdot w\cdot h$

where:

$\begin{gathered} l=15 \\ w=10 \\ h=12 \end{gathered}$

So:

$\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}\cdot(15)\cdot(10)\cdot(12) \\ V=\frac{1}{3}\cdot1800 \\ V=600_{\text{ }}cubic_{\text{ }}units \end{gathered}$
