given: the volume of a rectangular pyramid is \"160ft%5E3\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the length \"L=12ft\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "the width \"W=4ft\" \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "for a pyramid with width \"W\", length \"L\" and height \"h\", the volume,
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\"V\" of the pyramid will be:\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"V=%281%2F3%29WLh\".......solve for \"h\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3V=WLh\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"3V%2FWL=h\"..........plug in given values\r
