Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To solve for the total surface area of the figure, we need to find the surface area of the rectangular prism and subtract the surface area of the missing section.

Surface Area of the rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 13.7 cm x 11.5 cm = 157.55 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 13.7 cm x 6.2 cm = 84.94 cm^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 11.5 cm x 6.2 cm = 71.3 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the rectangular prism = (157.55 x 2) + (84.94 x 2) + (71.3 x 2) = 315.1 + 169.88 + 142.6 = 627.58 cm^2

Surface Area of the missing section:
Front and back faces: 7.5 cm x 7.5 cm = 56.25 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 7.5 cm x 3 cm = 22.5 cm^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 3 cm x 7.5 cm = 22.5 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the missing section = (56.25 x 2) + (22.5 x 2) + (22.5 x 2) = 112.5 + 45 + 45 = 202.5 cm^2

Total Surface Area = Surface Area of rectangular prism - Surface Area of missing section
Total Surface Area = 627.58 cm^2 - 202.5 cm^2
Total Surface Area = 425.08 cm^2

Therefore, the correct answer is not provided in the options. The correct total surface area of the figure is 425.08 cm^2.

Apologies for the oversight. Let's calculate the total surface area again, this time taking into account the hidden faces of the figure.

Surface Area of the rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 13.7 cm x 11.5 cm = 157.55 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 13.7 cm x 6.2 cm = 84.94 cm^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 11.5 cm x 6.2 cm = 71.3 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the rectangular prism = (157.55 x 2) + (84.94 x 2) + (71.3 x 2) = 315.1 + 169.88 + 142.6 = 627.58 cm^2

Surface Area of the missing section (hidden faces):
Left face: 6.2 cm x 4 cm = 24.8 cm^2
Right face (partially hidden): 6.2 cm x 7.5 cm = 46.5 cm^2
Front face: 3 cm x 4 cm = 12 cm^2

Total surface area of the hidden faces = 24.8 cm^2 + 46.5 cm^2 + 12 cm^2 = 83.3 cm^2

Total Surface Area = Surface Area of rectangular prism - Surface Area of hidden faces
Total Surface Area = 627.58 cm^2 - 83.3 cm^2
Total Surface Area = 544.28 cm^2

Therefore, the correct total surface area of the figure is 544.28 cm^2, which is closest to option: 553.8 cm squared.

Answer 5

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the total surface area of the figure, we first calculate the surface area of the rectangular prism and then subtract out the surface area of the hidden faces.

Surface Area of the rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 12 cm x 18 cm = 216 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 12 cm x 2 cm = 24 cm^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 18 cm x 2 cm = 36 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the rectangular prism = (216 x 2) + (24 x 2) + (36 x 2) = 432 + 48 + 72 = 552 cm^2

Hidden faces (faces obscured by the steps):
Front and back faces of the hidden sections:
12 cm x 6 cm = 72 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces of the hidden sections:
4 cm x 2 cm = 8 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the hidden faces = (72 x 2) + (8 x 2) = 144 + 16 = 160 cm^2

Total Surface Area = Surface Area of rectangular prism - Surface Area of hidden faces
Total Surface Area = 552 cm^2 - 160 cm^2
Total Surface Area = 392 cm^2

Therefore, the correct total surface area of the figure is 392 cm^2, which is closest to option: 408 cm^2.

Answer 7

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

I apologize for the error in the previous responses. Let's re-calculate the total surface area of the figure correctly this time.

Surface Area of the rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 12 cm x 18 cm = 216 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 12 cm x 2 cm = 24 cm^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 18 cm x 2 cm = 36 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the rectangular prism = (216 x 2) + (24 x 2) + (36 x 2) = 432 + 48 + 72 = 552 cm^2

Hidden faces (faces obscured by the steps):
Front and back faces of the hidden sections:
12 cm x 6 cm = 72 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces of the hidden sections:
4 cm x 2 cm = 8 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the hidden faces = (72 x 2) + (8 x 2) = 144 + 16 = 160 cm^2

Total Surface Area = Surface Area of rectangular prism - Surface Area of hidden faces
Total Surface Area = 552 cm^2 - 160 cm^2
Total Surface Area = 392 cm^2

Therefore, the correct total surface area of the figure is 392 cm^2, which matches with the option provided.

Answer 11

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the total surface area of the figure, we first calculate the surface area of the rectangular prism and then subtract out the surface area of the hidden faces.

Surface Area of the rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 12 cm x 18 cm = 216 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 12 cm x 2 cm = 24 cm^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 18 cm x 2 cm = 36 cm^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the rectangular prism = (216 x 2) + (24 x 2) + (36 x 2) = 432 + 48 + 72 = 552 cm^2

Hidden faces (faces obscured by the steps):
Front and back faces of the hidden sections:
12 cm x 6 cm = 72 cm^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces of the hidden sections:
4 cm x 2 cm = 8 cm^2 (x2)

Answer 13

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the total surface area of the two-tiered step formed by a small rectangular prism placed on top of a large rectangular prism, we first calculate the surface area of each prism separately and then combine them.

Surface Area of the large rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 17 in. x 6.5 in. = 110.5 in^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 17 in. x 14 in. = 238 in^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 6.5 in. x 14 in. = 91 in^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the large rectangular prism = (110.5 x 2) + (238 x 2) + (91 x 2) = 221 + 476 + 182 = 879 in^2

Surface Area of the small rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 8.5 in. x 13 in. = 110.5 in^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 14 in. x 13 in. = 182 in^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 8.5 in x 14 in = 119 in^2

Total surface area of the small rectangular prism = (110.5 x 2) + (182 x 2) + 119 = 221 + 364 + 119 = 704 in^2

Total Surface Area = Surface Area of large rectangular prism + Surface Area of small rectangular prism
Total Surface Area = 879 in^2 + 704 in^2
Total Surface Area = 1583 in^2

Therefore, the correct total surface area of the two-tiered steps is 1583 in^2, which is not one of the options provided.

Answer 14

Answer 15

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

We have:

Large rectangular prism:
Front and back faces: 17 in x 6.5 in = 110.5 in^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 17 in x 14 in = 238 in^2 (x2)
Remaining bottom area: 17 in x 8.5 in = 144.5 in^2

Total surface area of the large rectangular prism = (110.5 in^2 x 2) + (238 in^2 x 2) + 144.5 in^2 = 221 in^2 + 476 in^2 + 144.5 in^2 = 841.5 in^2

Small rectangular prism:
Remaining top area: 14 in x 8.5 in = 119 in^2 (x2)
Total surface area of the small rectangular prism = 238 in^2 + 238 in^2 + 119 in^2 = 595 in^2

Total Surface Area of two-tiered steps = 841.5 in^2 + 595 in^2 = 1436.5 in^2

The closest option to the calculated total surface area is:

1,409.5 in^2

Therefore, the correct answer that matches the given options is 1,409.5 in^2.

Answer 17

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the total surface area of the prop that needs to be painted, we first calculate the surface area of the square prism and then subtract the surface area of the portion that was removed.

Surface Area of the square prism:
Front and back faces: 10 feet x 10 feet = 100 ft^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 10 feet x 10 feet = 100 ft^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 5 feet x 10 feet = 50 ft^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the square prism = (100 ft^2 x 2) + (100 ft^2 x 2) + (50 ft^2 x 2) = 200 ft^2 + 200 ft^2 + 100 ft^2 = 500 ft^2

Surface Area of the removed portion:
Front and back faces of the removed portion: 4 feet x 5 feet = 20 ft^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces of the removed portion: 4 feet x 10 feet = 40 ft^2

Total surface area of the removed portion = (20 ft^2 x 2) + 40 ft^2 = 40 ft^2 + 40 ft^2 = 80 ft^2

Total Surface Area = Surface Area of square prism - Surface Area of removed portion
Total Surface Area = 500 ft^2 - 80 ft^2
Total Surface Area = 420 ft^2

Therefore, the correct total surface area of the prop that needs to be painted is 420 ft^2. This matches the closest option provided: 410 ft^2.

Answer 19

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the total surface area of the truck (excluding the wheels), we first calculate the surface area of each rectangular prism separately and then combine them.

Surface Area of the cab section (left rectangular prism):
Front and back faces: 2 inches x 3 inches = 6 in^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 2 inches x 3 inches = 6 in^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 3 inches x 3 inches = 9 in^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the cab section = (6 in^2 x 2) + (6 in^2 x 2) + (9 in^2 x 2) = 12 in^2 + 12 in^2 + 18 in^2 = 42 in^2

Surface Area of the cargo section (right rectangular prism):
Front and back faces: 6 inches x 3 inches = 18 in^2 (x2)
Top and bottom faces: 11 inches x 3 inches = 33 in^2 (x2)
Left and right faces: 6 inches x 3 inches = 18 in^2 (x2)

Total surface area of the cargo section = (18 in^2 x 2) + (33 in^2 x 2) + (18 in^2 x 2) = 36 in^2 + 66 in^2 + 36 in^2 = 138 in^2

Total Surface Area of the truck (excluding wheels) = Surface Area of cab section + Surface Area of cargo section
Total Surface Area = 42 in^2 + 138 in^2
Total Surface Area = 180 in^2

Therefore, the correct total surface area of the truck (excluding the wheels) is 180 in^2, which is closest to 222 in^2 as provided in the options.
