Use the image to answer the question.
A 3-dimensional illustration shows two horizontal rectangular prisms, with the smaller one adjoined along the front face of the larger one, to look like steps. Edges that are not visible are drawn with dashed lines. The rectangular prism in front is smaller than the one in the back. The length of both the prisms is 32 yards. The smaller rectangular prism is 6 yards high and 5 yards deep. The larger rectangular prism is 16 yards high. The total combined depth of the two prisms is 15 yards.
What is the total volume of the restaurant with an enclosed porch shown in the diagram?
(1 point)
To find the total volume, we first need to calculate the volume of each rectangular prism separately and then add them together.
Volume of the smaller rectangular prism:
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 32 yards x 5 yards x 6 yards
Volume = 960 cubic yards
Volume of the larger rectangular prism:
Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 32 yards x 15 yards x 16 yards
Volume = 7680 cubic yards
Total volume of the restaurant with the enclosed porch:
Total volume = Volume of smaller prism + Volume of larger prism
Total volume = 960 cubic yards + 7680 cubic yards
Total volume = 8640 cubic yards
Therefore, the total volume of the restaurant with the enclosed porch shown in the diagram is 8640 cubic yards.
