The volume of a rectangular pyramid is given by the formula V = 1/3 * base area * height.
In this case, the base area is calculated as the length times the width, so 7.5 miles * 7 miles = 52.5 square miles.
Therefore, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is V = 1/3 * 52.5 square miles * 5 miles = 87.5 cubic miles.
So, the volume of the rectangular pyramid is 87.5 mi^3.
Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows a rectangular pyramid with length of 7.5 miles, a width of 7 miles, and a perpendicular height of 5 miles. The right and front faces are visible. Edges and faces that are not visible are indicated by dashed lines.
