SOLUTION:
The volume of the hexagonal prism is;
[tex]V=Base\text{ }area\times height[/tex]
Inserting the values, the volume is;
[tex]V=8\times5=40ft^3[/tex]
The surface area is given by;
[tex]SA=Base\text{ }perimeter\times height\text{ }+2(Base\text{ }area)[/tex]
Therefore,
[tex]\begin{gathered} SA=6(2)\times5\text{ }+2(8) \\ SA=76ft^2 \end{gathered}[/tex]
