Answer:

6825 in^3

Explanation:

First break the shape into two shapes a square prism and triangular prism

the volume of a square prism is equal to s^2 * h

and the volume of a triangular prism is 1/2 b * l *h

square prism:

v = s^2 * h

v = 13^2 * 30

v = 5070 in^3

triangular prism:

v = 1/2 b * l * h

v = 1/2 * 9 * 30 * 13

v = 1755 in^3

then you add the two volumes to get the total volume

5070 + 1755 = 6825 in^3
