Question

1- You are designing a new popcorn box in the shape of a rectangular prism for the cinema theatres. The new popcorn box has a length of 7 inches, a width of 4 inches, and a height of 4 inches but does not include a lid.

Answer 1

The surface area is 116 square inches

Explanation:

Given

`L = 7` -- Length

`W = 4` -- Width

`H = 4` -- Height

Required

Determine the surface area of the box [Missing from the question]

Since the box has no lid, the surface area is:

`Area = 1\ bottom + 2\ fronts + 2\ sides`

`Area = 7 * 4 + 2 * 7 * 4 + 2 * 4 * 4`

`Area = 116`

Hence, the surface area is 116 square inches
