A holiday ornament in the shape of a square pyramid has the following dimensions: 2.75 × 2.75 x 2.75 in. What is the approximate volume of the ornament? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (1 point)
• 6.93 in.³
• 20.80 in.³
• 9.01 in.³
• 24.47 in.³
The volume of a square pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.
In this case, the base area of the square pyramid is 2.75 * 2.75 = 7.56 square inches, and the height is 2.75 inches.
Therefore, the volume of the ornament is V = (1/3) * 7.56 * 2.75 = 6.93 in³.
So the approximate volume of the ornament is 6.93 in³.
Therefore the answer is:
• 6.93 in.³
