Pyramid A has a height of 10 feet and a volume of 120 cubic feet. The base of Pyramid B has the same dimensions as Pyramid A but is twice as tall. How is the volume affected by the change in the dimensions? (PLEASE HELP!)

Sagot :

A volume of a pyramid=base area×height/3

both the bases have same dimensions

pyramid B is twice the height of A

therefore the volume is doubled

Answer:

Pyramid B = 240 cubic feet, the volume doubled

Step-by-step explanation:

Pyramid A: 120/10 =12,   12 x 3 = 36 ft² base

Pyramid B: 36 ft² base x 20 ft tall x 1/3 = 240 cubic feet
