Answer:
V = 48000 cm³
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume (V) of the prism is calculated as
V = area of end face × length
The end face is a trapezium with area (A) calculated as
A = h (b₁ + b₂ )
where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases
Here h = 20 , b₁ = 10 and b₂ = 30 , then
A = × 20 × (10 + 30) = 10 × 40 = 400 cm²
Thus
V = 400 × 120 = 48000 cm³

For this case we must convert from yards to inches. By definition we have to:
1 yard equals 36 inches
Making a rule of three we have:
1 yd ----------> 36 in
5 yd ----------> x
Where "x" represents the number of inches equivalent to 5 yards.
Thus, 5 yards represents 180 inches.
Answer:
180 inch
