Answer:

The area, in square centimeters, of the base of the aquarium is 25 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

  • The height:  8 cm
  • Volume : 200 [tex]cm^{3}[/tex]

As we know, the formula to find the volume of the a right rectangular prism is:

  • V =height* the base area

In this problem, we have:

200 = 8* the base area

<=> the base area  = 200/8 = 25 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

So the area, in square centimeters, of the base of the aquarium is 25 [tex]cm^{2}[/tex]

Hope it will find you well.
