Answer:

Thus, volume of pyramid = $\frac{1}{3}x^2y$ cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A solid right pyramid has a square base with an edge length of x cm and a height of y cm.

We have to choose from the given options an expression for the volume of the pyramid.

Volume of pyramid = $\frac{1}{3}\times Area\ of\ base \times height$

Since base is a square with edge length x cm.

Area of square = (side)² = x²

Thus, volume of pyramid = $\frac{1}{3}x^2y$ cm³
