Answer 1

Area,
`A=536 \ \text{inches}^2`

Explanation:

In this case, it is given that, Jaylen wants to cover her photo box with square jewels.

The box is 6 inches long, 13 inches wide, and 10 inches tall.

It is required to find the area she need to cover the box. It means we need to find the outer area of the box. It is given by the formula as :

`A=2(h * W) + 2(h * L) + 2(W * L)`

h = 10 inches, W = 13 inches and L = 6 inches

`A=2(10 * 13) + 2(10 * 6) + 2(13 * 6)\\\\A=536\ \text{inches}^2`

So, the area she need to cover the box is
`536 \ \text{inches}^2`.
