The formula for the volume of a square pyramid is
v = (b2h) - 3, where b is the length of one side of the
square base and h is the height of the pyramid. find the
length of a side of the base of a square pyramid that has
a height of 3 inches and a volume of 25 cubic inches.

5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the square pyramid is given by:

where b is the length of one side of the

square base and h is the height of the pyramid.

The height is given as h=3 inches and volume, V=25 cubic inches.

We substitute and solve for b

Take principal square root to get:

inches.

Hence the length of a side is 5 inches.

i believe it's a.

i'm not sure on this one, most likely correct.
