2, 0 0 8 and then 4, 5 5 6 8
To find the lateral area you will find the area of all 4 faces that are perpendicular to the base.
You will multiply the side by the length (front/back) and the side by the width (sides).
12 x 8 = 96
12 x 2 = 24
120 square inches x 2 = 240 square inches
The lateral area is 240 square inches.
The area of the base is 8 x 2 = 16 square inches.
16 x 2 = 32 square inches
240 square inches + 32 square inches = 272 square inches is the surface area.
4000.00 x 2.0 = $80.00 per year x 2 years = $160.00 so 6 months would earn $40.00 taking it to the $200, so 2 yrs 6 mos.
The answer to your problem is a+6x+5.
