Answer:
Surface area is found:
Surface Area = 1700 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
(The cereal box is shown in the ATTACHMENT)
The surface area of a rectangular prism can be found by added the areas of all 6 sides of the rectangular prism.
L = length = 20 cm
H = height = 30 cm
W = Width = 5 cm
<h3 /><h3>Side 1:</h3>A(1) = L×H
A(1) = 20×30
A(1) = 600 cm²
<h3>Side 2:</h3>As the measurements of the side at the back of side 1 has the same measurement of side 1. then:
A(2) = 600 cm²
<h3>Side 3:</h3>A(3) = L×W
A(3) = 20×5
A(3) = 100 cm²
<h3>Side 4:</h3>As the measurements of the side at the back of side 4 has the same measurement of side 4. then:
A(4) = 100 cm²
<h3>Side 5:</h3>A(5) = H×W
A(5) = 30×5
A(5) = 150 cm²
<h3>Side 6:</h3>As the measurements of the side at the back of side 5 has the same measurement of side 5. then:
A(6) = 150 cm²
<h3>Surface Area:</h3>Adding areas of all the sides
A(1) + A(2) + A(3) +A(4) + A(5) + A(6) = 600 + 600 + 100 +100 + 150 +150
Surface Area = 1700 cm²
Step one:
ALWAYS set equation equal to zero, which in this case has already been done for us.
Step two:
Figure out what formula you need to use in order to solve in this case I'd use the Quadratic formula.
a=1
b=9
c=2
Quadratic formula:
Then you would plug in the information.
The solve for what is underneath the square root ONLY.
Since you cannot solve this any further, your final two answers are...
