Answer: 4 feet.

Explanation:

Their is one rectangular prison divided into two.

The volume of the first one is

V1= L X H X W=80.

Volume of the second one is

V2= L X H X W

V2= 6 X H X 5

V2 = 30H

Now from the question, the total volume is 200cubic feet which means V1 + V2 = 200, recall that V1=80 and V2=30H, so we say;

80+30H=200, collecting the like term we have, 30H=200-80.

30H=120, divide both side by 30

30H/30=120/30

H= 4feet.

Height is 4feet.
