Answer:

C. 17 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of rectangular prism is given as:

A = 2lw + 2lh + 2wh

A = 930 square units

l = 12 units

h = 9 units

w = ? (We're to find the width)

Plug in the value into the formula

930 = 2*12*w + 2*12*9 + 2*w*9

930 = 24w + 216 + 18w

Add like terms

930 - 216 = 42w

714 = 42w

Divide both sides by 42

714/42 = 42w/42

17 = w

w = 17 units
