Answer:

The height of the pyramid is [tex]2.4\ ft[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a square pyramid is equal to

[tex]V=\frac{1}{3}b^{2}h[/tex]

we have

[tex]V=20\ ft^{3}[/tex]

[tex]b=5\ ft[/tex]

substitute and solve for h

[tex]20=\frac{1}{3}(5)^{2}h[/tex]

[tex]60=(25)h[/tex]

[tex]h=60/(25)=2.4\ ft[/tex]
