Ms. Benson is making a jewelry box using 2 identical squares of wood and 4 identical rectangular pieces of wood, as shown below. What is the surface area of the jewelry box in square inches (sq. in)?

Length of rectangles = 7 in.

Breadth of 4 rectangles = 3 x 4

                                          = 12 in.

Side of squares = 3 in.

Area of 4 rectangles = length x breadth

                                    = 7 x 12

                              = 84 sq. in.

Area of two squares = 2(side x side)

                                  = 2(3 x 3)

                                  = 18 sq. in.

Therefore, Surface area of the Jewellery box = 84 sq. in. + 18 sq. in.

                                                                              = 102 sq. in.

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
