Question 8 • *CR CCSS Math 2 S2 [M2960OX]

A rectangular prism has dimensions x units, 2x units, and x + 8 units.Which expression represents the surface area of the prism?

Answer
A
8x + 16 square units
B
16x + 32 square units
C
10x2 + 48x square units
D
2x3 + 16x2 square units

Explanation

The surface area of a rectangular prism is 2(lw + lh + wh). For dimensions x, 2x, and x + 8, the three face-area products are 2x², x² + 8x, and 2x² + 16x; doubling their sum gives 10x² + 48x square units. This matches choice C.
