Answer:
The volume of the container is 1584 inch³.
Explanation:
The volume of a rectangular prism is:
![\text{Volume}=\text{l}*\text{w}*\tect{h}](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/vkauraskri1tvnjyngqkisc6iwi8gk74eb.png)
It is provided that the container is made up of two rectangular prisms.
The dimensions are as follows:
- Prism 1: length of 14 inches, width of 6 inches, and height of 16 inches.
- Prism 2: length of 10 inches, width of 6 inches, and height of 4 inches.
Compute the volume of the rectangular prism 1 as follows:
![\text{V_(1)}=\text{l}_(1)*\text{w}_(1)*\text{h}_(1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/4ikghe4txkdriss43l7kt0bazr44bogxa9.png)
![\text{V}_(1)=\text{l}_(1)*\text{w}_(1)*\text{h}_(1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/1qhy12tw6mwvd59rht3defoo0qper3wwsu.png)
![=14* 6* 16\\=1344](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/4g8cnxmy3jm6d752wqw0b13vwdnuodyp3o.png)
Compute the volume of the rectangular prism 2 as follows:
![\text{V_(1)}=\text{l}_(1)*\text{w}_(1)*\text{h}_(1)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/4ikghe4txkdriss43l7kt0bazr44bogxa9.png)
![\text{V}_(2)=\text{l}_(2)*\text{w}_(2)*\text{h}_(2)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/akblhbri5y59zfm4p40py54nbnazdvkbdb.png)
![=10* 6* 4\\=240](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/86moopx31ngg43cxsw4twkhlynpotiz70m.png)
Then the volume of the container will be:
![\text{Volume of container}=\text{V}_(1)+\text{V}_(2)](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/c5bp5yc3u5huocajgjqzcm3lfwa5g7mi7m.png)
![=1344+240\\=1584](https://img.qammunity.org/2021/formulas/mathematics/college/hqq0yemxyescptr5imj4y4ukyg7ti7iank.png)
Thus, the volume of the container is 1584 inch³.
