Answer: 140 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular base pyramid is expressed as

Volume = 1/3 × base area × height

From the information given,

Length = 7 inches

Width = 3 inches

Base area = 7 × 3 = 21 square inches

Height = 12 - 4 = 8 inches

Volume = 1/3 × 21 × 8 = 56 cubic inches

The formula for determining the volume of a rectangular prism is expressed as

Volume = Length × width × height

Volume = 7 × 3 × 4 = 84 cubic inches

Volume of the composite figure is

56 + 84 = 140 cubic inches
