Answer:
142
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a Total Surface Area problem.
The box has 6 faces (sides): front, back, left, right, top, bottom. They are all rectangles. Area of a rectangle is length × width.
You find the area of each face and add them all up.
see image.
TSA = 15+15+21+21+35+35
= 30+42+70
= 142 sq inches

Hello,
For a given perimeter (P) there are an infinity of Area (A)
Let's say x the length, and y the wide of the rectangle
P=2(x+y)
A=xy
k=x-y >=0
As (x+y)²-4xy=(x-y)²: A²-4P=k² or P=(A²-k²)/4
In primus, you will find a graph (abacus) giving P for a A and k given.
Negative Area or P are excluded.(just remind the first quadrant, A>=0 and P>=0)
