To calculate the space available in the truck bed for transporting books, we need to find the volume of the truck bed.

The volume of a rectangular prism (such as the truck bed) is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height.

Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 95 x 80 x 42
Volume = 319,200 cubic units

Therefore, the truck bed has a space of 319,200 cubic units for transporting books.
wrong
I apologize for the mistake. Let's calculate the correct space available in the truck bed for transporting books:

The truck bed is in the shape of a rectangular prism, so the space available can be calculated using the formula for the volume of a rectangular prism:

Volume = length x width x height
Volume = 95 x 80 x 42
Volume = 319,200 cubic units

Therefore, the truck bed has a space of 319,200 cubic units for transporting books.
