Question 564297: Suppose that a box has a volume of 100 Cubic centimeters and that the area of the bottom of the box is 50 square centimeters. Find the height of the box. Answer by ad_alta(240) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Let 'h' be the height. We know the volume (V) is constrained by the equation V=Ah for a base area 'A.' Thus, 100=50h. The height must therefore be 2 cm (100/50=2).
