To find the height of the aquarium, we first need to find the volume of the prism using the formula V = lwh, where V is the volume, l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.
Given:
V = 1368 cubic inches
l = 19 inches
w = 9 inches
1368 = 19 * 9 * h
1368 = 171h
h = 1368 / 171
h = 8
Therefore, the height of the aquarium is 8 inches.
An aquarium can be modeled as a right rectangular prism and it can hold 1368 cubic inches of water when it is full. Its length is 19 in and width is 9 in. Find the height of the aquarium in inches. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.
