Question A "Caution Wet Floor” warning sign is in the shape of a rectangular pyramid. It is 31 in. tall and has a base whose dimensions are 12 in. by 20 in. What is the volume of the sign?(1 point) in.3
The volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) x base area x height.
First, find the area of the base:
Base area = length x width
Base area = 12 in x 20 in = 240 in^2
Now, plug in the values into the formula:
V = (1/3) x 240 in^2 x 31 in
V = (1/3) x 7440 in^3
V = 2480 in^3
Therefore, the volume of the "Caution Wet Floor" warning sign is 2480 in^3.
