Answer:
[tex]45u^{3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume is define as:
[tex]V=A_{base} h[/tex]
In words, it's the product of the area of the base of the figure, and the height.
In this problem, each toy box is a unit cube in size, that is, [tex]1u^{3}[/tex].
So, one easier way to solve this, it's by counting the total number of blocks. In the base, there are 15 blocks, which are 15 cubic units. Then, Rashad places 2 more blocks on top of each block in the base, that is, 2 times 16, which is 30. So, in total, there are 30+15=45 blocks that forms the figure, if each block is 1 cubic unit, then the volume is [tex]45u^{3}[/tex]
