2. A clothing truck is shaped like a rectangular prism. The volume of the truck 576 ft cubed. The length of the truck is 12 ft, the width of the truck is 8 ft. What is the height of the clothing truck in feet? *

Answer 1

Answer:

The height of the clothing truck is 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of truck = 12 feet

Width of truck = 8 feet

Let h be the height of truck

Volume of truck which is shaped like rectangular prism =$Length \times Width \times Height$

Volume of truck which is shaped like rectangular prism =$12 \times 8 \times h$

We are given that The volume of the truck 576 ft cubed.

So, $12 \times 8 \times h = 576$

$h = \frac{576}{12 \times 8}$

h=6

Hence the height of the clothing truck is 6 feet
