To find the volume of a pyramid, we can use the formula: V = (1/3) * B * h, where V is the volume, B is the area of the base, and h is the height.

The area of the rectangular base is length * width = 8 inches * 12 inches = 96 square inches.

The volume of the pyramid is (1/3) * 96 square inches * 20 inches = 1,920 cubic inches. Answer: \boxed{1920}.

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's calculate the volume correctly.

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.

In this case, the base area is the area of the rectangle, which is length * width = 8 inches * 12 inches = 96 square inches.

The height of the pyramid is given as 20 inches.

Now, we can calculate the volume: V = (1/3) * 96 square inches * 20 inches = 320 cubic inches.

Therefore, the volume of Cecilia's model pyramid is 320 cubic inches.

You are correct, and I apologize for the mistake in my previous response.

To calculate the volume of the pyramid correctly, we use the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.

The base area of the rectangular pyramid is length * width = 8 inches * 12 inches = 96 square inches.

The height of the pyramid is given as 20 inches.

Now, we can calculate the volume: V = (1/3) * 96 square inches * 20 inches = 6,400 cubic inches.

Therefore, the volume of Cecilia's model pyramid is 6,400 cubic inches.

I apologize for the confusion and incorrect answers. Let's calculate the volume of the pyramid correctly this time.

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.

In this case, the base area of the rectangular pyramid is length * width = 8 inches * 12 inches = 96 square inches.

The height of the pyramid is given as 20 inches.

Now, we can calculate the volume: V = (1/3) * 96 square inches * 20 inches = 1,920 cubic inches.

Therefore, the volume of Cecilia's model pyramid is 1,920 cubic inches.
