A rectangular prism has a base with a length of 8 cm and a width of 5 cm. The volume of the solid is 120 cm³. The volume of this prism can be found using the formula, V = lwh

Rearrange the volume formula to solve for h. What is the new formula?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer to your question is: h = 3 cm; [tex]h = \frac{V}{lw}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

l = 8 cm

w = 5 cm

V = 120 cm³

h = ?

Formula

V = lwh

Process

1.- Pass l and w to the right side, they are multiplying, then now they will be dividing.

                    [tex]h = \frac{V}{lw}[/tex]

2.- Substitution

                   [tex]h = \frac{120}{(8)(5)}[/tex]

                   [tex]h = \frac{120}{40}[/tex]

                   h = 3 cm
