Answer:
The new volume would be 14,850cm³.
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume of a rectangular prism is:
[tex]V = l*w*h[/tex]
In which l is the length, w is the width and h is the height.
Dimensions tripled.
So [tex]l = 3l, w = 3w, h = 3h[/tex]
The modified volume will be:
[tex]V_{m} = 3l*3w*3h = 27*l*w*h = 27V[/tex]
Volume of 550 cm³ before the dimensions are tripled.
This means that [tex]V = 550[/tex]
New volume:
[tex]V_{m} = 27*550 = 14850[/tex]
The new volume would be 14,850cm³.
