Please help.. i’ll give you brainliest and a thanks! the answer choices are 16 36 28 26 22 42..

Area= 26

Step-by-step explanation:

We can reduce this shape into 3 rectangles.

Rectangle 1: length=4 width=2

Rectangle 2: length=10 width=1

Rectangle 3: length=4 width=2

The formula for area of a rectangle is: l×w (length time width)

Now, just multiply!

4×2= 8

10×1= 10

4×2= 8

Add them all up.

8+10+8= 26

So, the area is 26cm^2.

Hope this helps!

c. y = 1/4 x + 5

step-by-step explanation:

first, put the equation of the line on the graph into slope-intercept form

(y = mx + b):   y = -4x + 8

second, a perpendicular line has to have "an opposite/reciprocal slope" to the original slope. so, find the "m" value in your original equation (it's -4, right? )

original slope: m = -4   perpendicular slope: change the sign to its opposite and find the reciprocal ("flip" the number)

new slope is now positive (b/c the original slope was negative 4), and it's 1/4 (not the original slope of 4 or 4/1)

the answer is b
