Joe is building a container to hold sand for a beach party. The container will hold 9,000 cubic feet of sand. Of the base of the

Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

The height of the container is 4 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

A container has the format of a rectangular prism.

It has three dimensions: width(w), length(l), height(h).

The volume is:

$V = w*l*h$

In this question:

$w = 45, l = 50, V = 9000$

We have to find the height(length and width are in feet, volume in cubic feet, so the height will be in feet).

$V = w*l*h$

$9000 = 45*50*h$

$h = \frac{9000}{45*50}$

$h = 4$

The height of the container is 4 feet.
