![The image shows a diagram of a rectangular box with the following dimensions:
- Length: 15 feet
- Width: 8 feet
- Height: 19 feet
Text below the diagram reads:
"What is the surface area of the box?"
There is a text input field for the answer, followed by the unit "ft²" (square feet).
Below the input field is a button labeled "Submit Question."
**Explanation of the diagram:**
The box is depicted with dimension labels on its visible edges, which clearly indicate the length, width, and height. To find the surface area of the box, use the formula:
\[ \text{Surface Area} = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh \]
Where:
- \( l = 15 \, \text{ft} \)
- \( w = 8 \, \text{ft} \)
- \( h = 19 \, \text{ft} \)
Calculating each term and adding them together will give the total surface area.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F3c22293a-3ae6-4ac2-9c37-c12acd82a0e8%2Fa13797a9-13fd-435f-8d80-103e516e3bd2%2F5wrajvc_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
