Answer :

Step 1Find the volume of the rectangular prism.Substitute ⁠\(l=11\) and ⁠\(w=8\) into the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism.⁠\(V=lwh\)⁠\(V=11\cdot 8\cdot h\)

Step 2Find the height of the vase.Since the vase is ⁠\(\frac{2}{3}\) full, there is ⁠\(\frac{2}{3}V\) of water in the vase.Equate the volume of water in the vase to ⁠\(\frac{2}{3}V\).⁠\(\frac{2}{3}V=704\)Substitute ⁠\(V=11\cdot 8\cdot h\) into the equation.⁠\(\frac{2}{3}V=704\)⁠\(\frac{2}{3}(11\cdot 8\cdot h)=704\)Multiply the numbers in the parentheses.⁠\(\frac{2}{3}\cdot 88h=704\)Calculate the product.⁠\(\frac{176}{3}h=704\)Multiply both sides of the equation by ⁠\(\frac{3}{176}\).⁠\(h=12\)SolutionThe height of the vase is ⁠\(12\) inches.
