Aaron bought a set of plastic ice cubes with a mixture of water and air inside.

2 rectangular pyramids are stacked on the bases. The pyramid has a rectangular base of 15 millimeters by 20 millimeters, and a height of 30 millimeters.

What volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes?

1,500 millimeters cubed

3,000 millimeters cubed

4,500 millimeters cubed

6,000 millimeters cubed

Mark this and return

Volume of water and air is 3,000 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of base = 15 mm

Width of base = 20 mm

Height of figure = 30 mm

Find:

Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes.

Computation:

Height of each rectangular pyramid = Height of figure / 2

Height of each rectangular pyramid = 30 / 2

Height of each rectangular pyramid = 15 mm

Volume of each rectangular pyramid = lbh / 3

Volume of each rectangular pyramid = [15 * 20 * 15] / 3

Volume of each rectangular pyramid = [4,500] / 3

Volume of each rectangular pyramid = 1,500 mm³

Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes = 2 * Volume of each rectangular pyramid

Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes = 2 * 1,500

Volume of water and air is inside each of the plastic ice cubes = 3,000 mm³
