Question 230694: The surface area S of a right prism is given by
S=2B+Ph,
where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter of the base, and h is the height of the prism.
Solve for h.
Sorry Stan I did not put the h in the last question.

You can put this solution on YOUR website! The surface area S of a right prism is given by
S=2B+Ph,
where B is the area of the base, P is the perimeter of the base, and h is the height of the prism.
Solve for h.
------------------
S = 2B + Ph
Subtract 2B from both sides:
Ph = S-2B
Divide both sides by P:
------------------
h = (S-2B)/P
====================
Cheers,
