b. 96 yd 2
c. 50 yd 2
d. 90 yd 2

Answer 1

The answer is 96 yd 2

Explanation:

First for the triangle bases, you multiply the 3 by 4 and divide by 2 to get one base which is 6, then double it to get the other base on the top to get a total of 12. Then you just find the area of the other sides of the prism by multiplying the lengths and widths.

5x7=35

4x7=28

3x7=21

then you add all of the total values together:

35+28+21+12=96
