Respuesta :

Answer:C. 192.5 in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Volume of a triangular prism = area of triangular base x height of the prism

Area of triangular base = base x height of the triangle base x 1/2

Replacing with the values given:

V = 11 x 5 x 1/2 x7

V = 192.2 in^3

In conclusion, the correct option is C. 192.5 in^3.
