Answer: The carpenter will need 84 square inches of wood.

In this problem we are looking for the surface area of the jewelry box. This box has 5 faces. The two triangles at each end and the 3 rectangle pieces between them.

The sides of the triangles are 3, 4, 5 which always forms a right triangle with legs of 3 and 4. Use the formula for the area of a triangle, we have 3 x 4 / 2 = 6. The area of each triangle is 6 square inches.

Now, the three sides, each one has a height of 6.
3 x 6 = 18
4 x 6 = 24
5 x 6 = 30

If we add all the sides together, we get an area of 84 square inches.
6 + 6 + 18 + 24 + 30 = 84

Please help need this done now hurry 1 question below!! 25 points

So we need to find the inequality, Simple! 
So we only have 5 dollars. That we cannot change. 
But the snadwich, however, we can change how much we buy. But this problem is asking us how many we can buy. So that is an x. So far, we have 2.25x.
Then we have to use the inequality sign 'less than or equal to' because we can buy less or equal to 5 dollars. 

So the equation is 2.25x \leq 5
Then we solve by isolating the x. We divide 2.25 both sides then we get x \leq 2
