Step-by-step explanation:
The question lacks the required diagram, find the diagram attached.
Volume of the pyramid V = BH where;
B is the base area
H is the height of the prism.
b) To solve for B, we will have to make B the subject of the formula from the equation in a;
From (a);
V = BH
Divide both sides by H
V/H = BH/H
V/H = B
B = V/H
c) Since we are not given the volume and height of the prism, we can as well use the following parameters;
Let us assume Volume of the prism = 175in³ and eight of the prism H = 5in
Substitute this values into the equation derived in (b)
B = 175in³/5in
Hence the area of the base of the prism is square inches is 35in²
