Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

There are 6 faces in a rectangular prism.

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

The dimensions of the prism are: length = 5 ft, width = 2 ft, height = 8 ft.

Calculating the surface area:
2(5)(2) + 2(5)(8) + 2(2)(8)
= 10 + 80 + 32
= 122 square feet

Therefore, the surface area of the rectangular prism is 122 square feet.
