19 cubic inches
D.
45 cubic inches

Respuesta :

Answer:

  B.  225 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume is the product of the base area and the height:

  V = Bh

The area of the square base is the product of the side lengths:

  B = (5 in)^2 = 25 in^2

For a height of 9 in, the volume is ...

  V = (25 in^2)(9 in) = 225 in^3

The volume of the right rectangular prism is 225 cubic inches.
