Question

Syrus is buying a tent with the dimensions shown below. The volume inside the tent is 36 feet. Syrus isn't sure if the tent will be tall enough for him to sit up inside. What is the height of the tent?

Answer 1

The height of the tent is 3 feet

Explanation:

Using the equation V(volume): 1/2*b(base)*h(height)*l(length)

We know this..

36 is the volume

4 is the base

6 is the length

36=1/2 * 4 *h * 6

36=12h

We want to get h by itself so we divide.

36/12 = 3

12h/12 = h

3=h

In conclusion, the height of the tent is 3 feet.

Answer 2

the answer is 3 feet

Explanation:

We can use the volume formula, V =1/2 bhl to find the height of the tent

the volume is
`36^(3)`. The base is 4 and the length is 6 feet

​36=1/2 ⋅4⋅h⋅6

36=12h

3=h

The height of the tent is 3 feet.
