packaging department has calculated that they need to add 3 inches to
each of the dimension of the original packaging (Original height=10 in width=2.75 length=5). What is the new amount of material needed to package one doll?

if the sides are x,y,z, then the package (surface area) is

2xy + 2xz + 2yz

So, the new dimensions will be
x=3, y+3, z+3

plug in your numbers to find the area
