HELP ME PLEASE DONT HAVE A LOT OF TIME

The school wants to order a new counter top for the teacher’s lounge. The shape of the counter top that they are replacing is shown below.

A countertop can be broken into 2 rectangles. 1 rectangle has a base of 70 inches and height of 20 inches. The other rectangle has a base of 20 inches and height of 30 inches.
If the new countertop costs $0.75 per square inch, what is the price of the replacement countertop?
$1,500
$1,800
$2,000
$2,400

A. $1500

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the countertop area, so let's calculate the areas of the rectangles that the problem broke the countertop into:

1. "1 rectangle has a base of 70 inches and height of 20 inches"

The area of a rectangle is denoted by: A = bh, where b is the base and h is the height. Here, b = 70 and h = 20, so the area is: A = 70 * 20 = 1400 inches squared

2. "The other rectangle has a base of 20 inches and height of 30 inches"

Again, use A = bh: b = 20 and h = 30, so A = 20 * 30 = 600 inches squared

Add up these two areas: 1400 + 600 = 2000 inches squared.

The problem says that the cost is $0.75 per square inch, so multiply this by 2000 to get the total cost of 2000 square inches:

2000 * 0.75 = $1500

Thus, the answer is A.

Hope this helps!

$1500

Step-by-step explanation:

You can divide this figure into 2 rectangle with dimensions:

1) 70 × 20

2) 20 × (50-20: 20 × 30

Area:

(70×20) + (20×30)

1400 + 600

2000 in²

Cost per in²: 0.75

2000in² cost:

2000 × 0.75

$1500

the final function for the graph becomes x-2=-1. before graphing you solve the equation, where x=1. then graph accordingly.   ( on the x-axis, 1 on the line will possess a vertical line.)

126 maybe. sorry
