    The height of the shipping carton is

    9in

    Step-by-step explanation:

    This problem bothers on the mensuration of solid shapes. Rectangular prism.

    Given data

    Volume of prism = 90in³

    Area of base = 10in²

    We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is expressed as

    V = l*w*h

    Where l = length

    w = width

    h = height

    But our given area = l*w=10in²

    Substituting our given data we have

    V = A*h

    90=10*h

    h=90/10

    h = 9 in
