Formula for sufrace area of rectangular prisms: S= 2 (lw + lh + wh)
for the first prism, x=14, plug 14 into 2(x)--> 2(14)=28
7,8,28
S= 2 [7(8)+7(28)+8(28)]
S= 2 (28+196+224)
S= 2(448)
S= 896
for the second prism, x is just 14
7,8,14
S= 2 [7(8)+7(14)+8(14)]
S= 2 (28+98+112)
S= 2(238)
S= 476
Add the two sufrace areas we found and the answer will be
D) S= 1,372
