Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

One side of the square base is 6 inches, say a.

Suppose the height of the pyramid is h

The volume of square pyramid shaped container is given as 96

The formula for volume is = [tex]\frac{1}{3}a^2*h[/tex]

[tex]96=\frac{1}{3}*6^2*h[/tex]

Multiply 3 in both sides

[tex]96*3=36*h[/tex]

h=8

So the height of pyramid is 8 inches.   :    Answer
