Answer 1

can you try again? maybe a lower or higher number

Answer 2

nvm ur no help

Answer 3

To calculate the amount of wrapping paper needed, you need to find the surface area of the package.

The surface area of a rectangular prism (the shape of the package) is found by adding the areas of all six sides.

The formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism is:
2lw + 2lh + 2wh

In this case, the dimensions are:
Length (l) = 15 in
Width (w) = 4 in
Height (h) = 7 in

Plugging these values into the formula:

Surface Area = 2(15)(4) + 2(15)(7) + 2(4)(7)
Surface Area = 30 + 210 + 56
Surface Area = 296 square inches

Therefore, 296 square inches of wrapping paper is needed for the package.

Answer 4

Of course! Let's try finding the amount of wrapping paper needed for a different package.

Let's say the package dimensions are:
Width (w) = 6 in
Height (h) = 10 in
Length (l) = 12 in

Using the same formula for the surface area of a rectangular prism:
Surface Area = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

Plugging in the new dimensions:
Surface Area = 2(12)(6) + 2(12)(10) + 2(6)(10)
Surface Area = 144 + 240 + 120
Surface Area = 504 square inches

Therefore, 504 square inches of wrapping paper is needed for this package.
