PLEASE HELP! I feel horrible and I'm crying so hard right now. This is due.

Answer 1

62

Explanation:

surface area of a rectangular prism = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Where l = length, w = width and h = height

The box has the following dimensions

length = 5 in

width = 3 in

height 2 in

Using these dimensions, we plug in the values into the formula

`SA=2(5*3)+2(5*2)+2(3*2)\\5*3=15\\15*2=30\\5*2=10\\10*2=20\\3*2=6\\6*2=12\\SA=30+20+12\\30+20+12=62`

Hence, the surface area = 62
