Step 1:
The figure is a composite figure with a square base pyramid and a cube.
Step 1:
The volume of the composite shape is the sum of the volume of a square base pyramid and a cube.
![\text{Volume = L}^3\text{ + }(1)/(2)\text{ base area }*\text{ height}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/36n97kmbosv79buu4d55aay0lxovrqowby.png)
Step 3:
Given data
Cube
Length of its sides L = 15 ft
Square base pyramid
Height h = 9 ft
Length of the square base = 15 ft
Step 4:
Substitute in the formula.
![\begin{gathered} \text{Volume = 15}^3\text{ + }(1)/(3)\text{ }*15^2\text{ }*\text{ 9} \\ \text{= 3375 + 675} \\ =4050ft^3 \end{gathered}](https://img.qammunity.org/2023/formulas/mathematics/college/2osczrbcfi0qyzf4fkad9dcttw9t7jtchw.png)
