Answer:

2.5 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The clothing truck in this problem is shaped as a rectangular prism.

Therefore, we need to find the height of a rectangular prism.

The volume of a rectangular prism is given by the formula:

[tex]V=Ah[/tex]

where

V is the volume

A is the area of the base

h is the height of the prism

In this problem we have:

[tex]V=15 ft^3[/tex] is the volume of the truck

[tex]A=6 ft^2[/tex] is the area of the squared base

Solving the formula for h, we find the height of the truck:

[tex]h=\frac{V}{A}=\frac{15}{6}=2.5 ft[/tex]
