lookup the formula for volume of rectangular pyramid
|dw:1468308711728:dw|
V=lwh/3. Thats the formula but i dont know how to do it because we dont have height.
why do you need height ?
correct, were trying to find height. but then how do i find the volume of rectangular pyramid without the height?
You don't need to find something when it is given to you already
read the question again you're given volume
yes i know but you said to find formula for volume of rectangular pyramid, which is V=lwh/3. but idk what do next if we already have the volume, width and length
You can use that formula to find the height
Plugin the given values in that formula first
756=(9)(14)/3
who ate `h` ?
756=(9)(14)( `h`)/3
right ?
oh lol, correct, i just thought since we dont know H theres no point of it being there, my bad
We must follow the rules of math, not our wishes ;)
see if you can solve `h` from above equation
756 = 42 h
You want h
756=42h 756/42=18 So the answer is D
Yes! As you can see, the formula V = lwh/3 can be used to solve any of the four quantities, V or l or w or h, when you know any 3 quantities.
Yep i understand how to do it now, thanks again :)
In the present problem, you knew V, l, and w; the formula helped you find the unknown h
