Keep in mind: The entire line segment (VX) is equal to 14.

Let's see how the line segment looks like first.
Line segment VX is 14 units long.
14
______________
V X
W is on the line segment somewhere, and VW is equal to 3.
3 ?
______________
V W X

We have to solve for the <em>?.</em> Let's put ? as x. So now we are solving for x.
We have to set up our equation like this:
x + 3 = 14
Since our unknown value plus 3 is equal to 14, we have to subtract 3 from 14 to get our answer.
14 - 3 = 11
3 11
______________
V W X

Answer:
(15x + 120) ft³
Or
15(x + 8) ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
The prism can be decomposed into a rectangular prism and a triangular prism
The volume of the prism = volume of the rectangular prism + volume of the triangular prism
✔️Volume of rectangular prism = L*W*H
L = 5 ft
W = 4 ft
H = 6 ft
Volume = 5*4*6 = 120 ft³
✔️Volume of triangular prism = ½*b*h*l
b = x ft
h = 6 ft
l = 5 ft
Volume = ½*x*6*5 = 15x ft³
✔️Volume of the prism = (15x + 120) ft³
