This shoebox is a right rectangular prism with dimensions of 30 cm by 15 cm by 12 cm. What is the surface area of this shoebox?

d. 1980 cm2

Step-by-step explanation:

                dimentions          area                    total

base          30x15                  450cm2             900cm2

face1           12x15                 180cm2                360cm2            *add to get

face2          30x12                 360cm2               720cm2

plus i got it right ;)                                                1980*

check above link.

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.
