Question

Tomás built several towers with rectangular blocks. Which formula best represents the heights of the blocks in terms of their volumes?

Answer 1

The correct answer is option A. 15h

Explanation:

From the figure we can see that a table shows the relationship between heights and volume of rectangular blocks.

Heights Volume

2 15

3 45

4 60

10 150

To find the formula in terms of heights

If height = 2 then volume = 30 = 2 * 15

If height = 3 then volume = 45 = 3 * 15

If height is 'h' then volume = 15 * h = 15h

The correct answer is option A. 15h

Answer 2

Option A

V = 15h

Explanation:

Given in the question some information regarding the heights and volume of the towers with rectangular blocks

Formula to use

Volume = Length x Width x Height

30 = Length x Width (2)

Length x Width = 30/2

Length x Width = 15

Formula best represents the heights of the blocks in terms of their volumes

V = 15h
