Question

PLEASE HELP 20 points!!!

Answer 1

x = 10 cm

Explanation:

The volume of a pyramid is
`V = (Bh)/(3)`, where V = volume, B = area of base, and h = height.

• We're given the height as 14 cm
• We're given the volume as 280 cubic cm
• We're given one of the dimensions of the rectangle as 6 cm
• 
  `280= ((14)(6)(x))/(3)`

Step 1: Multiply both sides by 3.

• 
  `280*3=(84x)/(3) *3`
• 
  `840=84x`

Step 2: Divide both sides by 84.

• 
  `840/84=84x/84`
• 
  `x=10`

Step 3: Check if solution is correct.

• 10 * 6 * 14 = 840
• 840/3 = 280

Therefore, x = 10 cm.
