Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the maximum amount of cargo the truck can carry, we need to find the volume of the truck.

Volume = length × width × height.

Firstly 1 feet (1') = 12 inches (12"),

For the extra ledge that sticks out, the height = 7'8" = 7.667 feet, the width = 16'9" - 14'3" = 16.75 - 14.25 = 2.5 feet, the length = 2'7" = 2.583 feet

Volume of extra ledge = length × width × height = 2.583 × 2.5 × 7.667 = 49.5 feet³

For the truck, the height = 7'8" = 7.667 feet, the length = 14'3" = 14.25 feet, the width = 6'6" = 6.5 feet

Volume of truck = length × width × height = 14.25 × 6.5 × 7.667 = 710.16 feet³

The maximum volume = volume of extra ledge + volume of truck = 49.5 + 710.16 = 759.66 feet³
