Formula: \(LA = (2l + 2w)h\) Plug in what we know: \(LA = (2(4) + 2(5))(10)\) Simplify that. @lordoftanks

OpenStudy (anonymous):

hmmmmm what does la mean

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Lateral area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ignore that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Just simplify: \((2(4) + 2(5))(10)\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

130

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Check again.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

90

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No..first multiply 2 * 4 and 2 * 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):
