Answer: 12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the volume of a rectangular prism is given by :-

[tex]\text{Volume}=\text{Base area* height}[/tex]

Given :  A toy chest in the shape of a rectangular prism has a volume of 8,640 cubic inches.

The base area of the toy chest is 720 square inches.  

Let h be the height of the toy chest, then we have

[tex]8640=720\times h\\\\\Rightarrow\ h=\dfrac{8640}{720}=12[/tex]

Hence, the height of the toy chest = 12 inches
