Maggie has a container in the shape of a right prism. The formula for its surface area is SA = Ph + 2B. Solve for h.

A.h = SA minus two times B over P
B.h = SA plus two times B over P
C.h = SA plus P over two times B
D.h = SA minus P over two times B

Respuesta :

Answer:

A. [tex]h=\frac{SA-2B}{P}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a formula for the surface area of a container in shape of right prism. We are asked to solve for h for our given formula.

[tex]SA=Ph+2B[/tex]

First of all, we will switch sides for our given equation as:

[tex]Ph+2B=SA[/tex]

Now, we will subtract 2B from both sides of our equation.

[tex]Ph+2B-2B=SA-2B[/tex]

[tex]Ph=SA-2B[/tex]

Now, we will divide both sides of our equation by P.

[tex]\frac{Ph}{P}=\frac{SA-2B}{P}[/tex]

[tex]h=\frac{SA-2B}{P}[/tex]

Therefore, option A is the correct choice.
