Answer:

140 ft³

Explanation:

imagine the prism is standing on one of its triangular sides.

then it becomes a regular object with the volume

base area × height

the base area is the area of the triangle

baseline × inner height / 2

in our case

4 × 7 / 2 = 14 ft²

so for the volume we have

14 × 10 = 140 ft³
