Answer 1

Answer:

9 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the height of the pyramid be h cm, then the height of the cuboid is (15 - h) cm.

Volume of the pyramid:

= 1/3 * h * s^2      where s is the length of a side of the square base.

= hs^2/3 cm^3

Volume of the cuboid:

= s^2(15 - h).

So we have:

hs^2/ 3 = 300.......................(1)

s^2(15 - h) = 600..................(2)

From  equation (1) :

h s^2 = 900

s^2 = 900/h

Now substitute for s^2 in  equation (2) :

(900/h)(15 - h) = 600

Multiply through by h:

900(15 - h) = 600h

13500 - 900h = 600h

1500h = 13500

h = 9 cm (answer).                  brainliest?
