Answer :

Answer: 1,000 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

    The volume of a prism is the volume of the base times the height. Here, our base is a trapezoid. To find the volume, we will use the following formula:

         V = BH

         V = (0.5[b1 + b2][h]) * H

         V = (0.5[3 m + 5 m][25 m]) * 10 m

         V = (100 m²) * 10 m

         V = 1,000 m³

    See attached for where I pulled these numbers from.
