Assuming this is a rectangular prism, here are the formulas for the volume and surface area.
V=l×w×h
SA=lw+lw+lh+lh+wh+wh
I didn't want to give the answer away, but I wanted to head you in the right direction. Hope this helped!
Multiplying the matrices A and B would yield the following matrix:
| 1 0 |
| 0 1 |
A simple method would be using a calculator to solve for this. You can input the values of one matrix, and then the values of another matrix, then multiply them and it would yield the above result. As a rule of thumb, you make sure to only multiply similar matrices.

Answer: Choice C) -11
-----------------------------------
Explanation:
The first equation given is y = 3 - 1/2x
In other words, y is the same as 3 - 1/2x.
We can replace y in the second equation with 3 - 1/2x
This is known as substitution (think of a substitute teacher who is a temporary replacement for your teacher)
Doing this leads to...
3x+4y = 1
3x+4*y = 1
3x+4*( y ) = 1
3x+4*( 3 - 1/2x ) = 1 <<--- y has been replaced with 3-1/2x
3x+4*(3) +4*(-1/2x) = 1
3x+12-2x = 1
3x-2x+12 = 1
x+12 = 1
x+12-12 = 1-12 <<-- subtracting 12 from both sides
x = -11
Which is why the answer is choice C) -11
