If the VOLUME of a rectangular prism is 945 cm 3, then what is the value of the length X of the base?

15cm for height 7cm for side x cm for bottom

1 answer

To find the value of length x, we can use the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:

Volume = length x width x height

Given that the volume is 945 cm^3, the height is 15 cm, and one of the sides is 7 cm, we can plug in these values into the formula:

945 = x * 7 * 15

Now, we can solve for x:

x = 945 / (7 * 15)
x = 945 / 105
x = 9

Therefore, the value of the length x of the base is 9 cm.
