Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a rectangular pyramid with length of 7.5 miles, a width of 7 miles, and a perpendicular height of 5 miles. The right and front faces are visible. Edges and faces that are not visible are indicated by dashed lines.
What is the volume of the rectangular pyramid?
(1 point)
The volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by the formula V = (1/3) * base area * height.
First, calculate the base area:
Base Area = length * width = 7.5 miles * 7 miles = 52.5 square miles
Next, plug in the values into the formula:
V = (1/3) * 52.5 square miles * 5 miles = 87.5 cubic miles
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 87.5 cubic miles.
