PLEASE HELP!!!! TIMED EXAM

Which equation should be used to find the volume of the figure?
A rectangular pyramid with a base of 6 inches by 4 inches and a height of 8 inches.
V = one-third (6) (4) (8)
V = one-half (6) (4) (8)
V = one-third (6) (4) (10)
V = one-half (6) (4) (10)

Answer 1

The correct answer is A: V=1/3 (6)(4)(8)

A

Answer 2

The correct option is V = one-third (6) (4) (8).

Explanation:

The volume of a rectangular pyramid is:

`V=(1)/(3)\ l* b* h`

Here,

V = volume

l = length

b = base

h = height

The information provided is:

l = 6 inches

b = 4 inches

h = 8 inches.

Compute the equation of the volume of a rectangular pyramid as follows:

`V=(1)/(3)\ l* b* h`

`=(1)/(3)* 6* 4* 8`

Thus, the correct option is V = one-third (6) (4) (8).
