Find the volume of the air mattress if h = 60 inches and w = 26 inches. The mattress is 2 inches thick.
V = 60 * 26 * 2
v=3120
To find the volume of the air mattress, we need to multiply the height, width, and thickness.
Given:
h = 60 inches
w = 26 inches
thickness = 2 inches
The volume formula for a rectangular prism is:
Volume = length x width x height
Since we are given the width and height but not the length, we can assume that the length is equal to the width.
So, the volume of the air mattress is:
Volume = width x width x height
Substituting the given values:
Volume = 26 inches x 26 inches x 60 inches
Simplifying:
Volume = 16,440 cubic inches
Therefore, the volume of the air mattress is 16,440 cubic inches.
