Question

The volume of a square prism with height of 21 inches and each side of the base s inches is given by the expression 7s2. Find the volume of a square prism if the length of a side is 3 inches

Answer 1

Answer:

63 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a prism is given by, A =  $\frac{1}{3} \times (\textrm {Base Area}) \times (\textrm {Height})$

The base area for a square prism with sides s inches is s² sq. inches.

So, the volume of a square prism with a height of 21 inches and each side of the base s inches is given by the expression, V = 7s² cubic inches.

Therefore, if s = 3 inches, then volume will be, V = 7(3²) = 63 cubic inches. (Answer)
