Question
Consider that V = Bh represents the volume of a rectangular prism, where B is the area of the base of the prism and h is the prism's height.
Question 1
When finding the volume of a rectangular prism, which choice is equivalent to V = Bh?
Responses
A V = lwV = lw
B V = BwV = Bw
C V = BlwV = Blw
D V = lwhV = lwh
Question 2

Responses
A V =
(5)V = ( 4 ) 2 (5)
B V = (4)
V = (4) ( 5 ) 2

### Question 1
To find the volume of a rectangular prism using the formula \( V = Bh \), where \( B \) is the area of the base, we can express \( B \) in terms of length \( l \) and width \( w \) of the base. The area of a rectangle is given by \( B = lw \). Thus, substituting this into the volume formula gives us:
\[ V = lw \cdot h \]
Thus, the equivalent expression is:
**Response:** D \( V = lwh \)

### Question 2
To find the volume of a cylinder using the formula \( V = Bh \), where \( B \) is the area of the base and \( h \) is the height, we first need to find the area of the base \( B \). The base of the cylinder is a circle, and the area \( B \) can be calculated using the formula for the area of a circle, \( B = \pi r^2 \).
Given \( r = 4 \) inches, we can find:
\[
B = \pi (4^2) = \pi \cdot 16
\]
Now substituting \( B \) back into the volume formula gives:
\[
V = \pi (4^2) \cdot h
\]
Now substituting \( h = 5 \):
\[
V = \pi (16) \cdot 5 = 80\pi
\]
The response that directly represents this is:
**Response:** A \( V = (4^2)(5)\pi \)
(Note: A was interpreted to be correctly formatted as the volume equation could also be represented as \( V = \pi (16)(5) \) which simplifies to the above expression in plain terms). Always ensure you're converting your responses into the correct formats for consistent notation.
