So I've been searching around the internet for some answers to this, but I currently have a set of linear constraints: $Ax = b, Cx le d$ for matrices $A in mathbbR^n times m$, $bin mathbbR^n$, $C in mathbbR^p times m$, and $d in mathbbR^p$. I would like to deduce a formula for the volume of the set of feasible $x$:s that satisfy these constraints. It would be great if anyone could point me in a good direction, maybe this can't be solved analytically, in this case, maybe there is an approximation?

Here is one paper, whose introduction will lead you to others:
Lasserre, Jean B., and Eduardo S. Zeron. "A new algorithm for the volume of a convex polytope." arXiv math/0106168 (2001).
If you want a faster but approximate algorithm:
Emiris, Ioannis Z., and Vissarion Fisikopoulos. "Efficient random-walk methods for approximating polytope volume." In Proceedings 13th Symposium on Computational Geometry, p. 318. ACM, 2014. ACM link.
Also addressed in a 2009 MO question:
"Algorithm for finding the volume of a convex polytope."
