Will put braniest to first who answers. erin covered a box with contact paper. the dimensions of the box are shown in the figure below: a rectangular prism is shown. the length of the rectangular prism is labeled as 11 inches, the height is labeled as 9 inches and the width is labeled as 8 inches. the contact paper costs 8¢ per square inch. she will only pay for the contact paper used to cover the box, even if there is waste or extra. how much money did erin spend on the contact paper? $20.72 $41.44 $48.12 $73.14

This problem asks for the surface area of the box, since the contact paper covers the outside (like wrapping paper). The box is 11 x 8 x 9, its length, width, and heighth respectively. And the formula for the surface area of the box is

SA = 2(lw + wh + hl)

SA = 2(11*8 + 8*9 + 9*11)

SA = 2(88 + 72 + 99)

SA = 2(259)

SA = 508 square inches

We are told the contact paper costs eight cents a square inch.

508 square inches x 8 cents / square inch

= $41.44 (the square inches divide out)

Thus, Erin spent $41.444 on contact paper.
