A crystal perfume bottle is in the shape of a square pyramid. The length of one of the sides of the base is 3 in., and the height of the bottle is 5 in. What is the volume of the bottle?(1 point)
The volume of a square pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * (base area) * height.
First, we need to calculate the area of the base of the square pyramid, which is a square with side length 3 in. Therefore, the area of the base is 3 in * 3 in = 9 in^2.
Now, we can substitute the values into the formula to find the volume:
V = (1/3) * 9 in^2 * 5 in = (1/3) * 45 in^3 = 15 in^3
Therefore, the volume of the crystal perfume bottle is 15 cubic inches.
