A shoe box in the shape of a rectangular prism measures 12in by 7in by 4in. What is the surface area of the shoe box?

320 sq in

Step-by-step explanation:

SA(rect prism) = 2(lw)+2(wh)+2(lh)

= 2(12·7)+2(7·4)+2(12·4)

= 2(84)+2(28)+2(48)

= 168+56+96

= 320

x =-.20752

step-by-step explanation:

4^(x+2)=12

4^(x+2)=12

take the log base 4 on each side

log 4 (4^(x+2) = log 4(12)

we know log b(a^y) = y log b (a)

(x+2) log 4(4) = log 4 (12)

x+2 = log 4 (12)

we know   logb c = loga c/loga b

we want to convert to base 10   so a = 10

by default, we do not write the 10   c = 4   and b = 10

log4 10 = log 12/log 4

log4 10 = log 12/ log 4

x+2 = log 12/ log 4

subtract 2 from each side

x +2 -2 = log 12/ log 4 -2

x = 1.79248125 -2

x =-.20752

a.)the line for function b is steeper
