Question

If the height of a rectangular prism is doubled, what effect does that have on the volume?

Answer 1

Answer:

The new volume is two times the original volume

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism

$V=BH$

where

B is the area of the base

H is the height of the prism

If the height of a rectangular prism is doubled,

then

The new volume is equal to

$V=B(2H)$

$V=2BH$

therefore

The new volume is two times the original volume
