The volume of a rectangular prism is 16.328 cm³. The height is 3.14 cm.
a. Let B represent the area of the base of the rectangular prism. Write an equation that relates the volume, the area of the base, and the height.
b. Solve the equation for B.

Answer:

The area of the base is = 5.2 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to know the formula to calculate volume:

[tex]volume=height XBase area[/tex]

if we change to our equations to the values we know:

[tex]16.328 = 3.14XB[/tex]

Since 3.14 is multiplying B,we can pass it to divide the volume to the left side:

[tex]\frac{16.328}{3.14} =B[/tex]

We calculate the operation=

[tex]\frac{16.328}{3.14} =5.2[/tex]

And the answer is 5.2 cm²
