4. A railway embankment is 10m wide with side slopes 1.5 to 1. Assuming the ground to be level in a direction transverse to the center line, calculate the volume contained in a length of 120 meters by prismoidal formula. The center heights at 20m intervals being in meters 2.2, 3.4, 3.8, 4.0, 3.6, 2.8, and 2.5. (CO2, Cognitive, Apply)
