Can someone explain to me how this is wrong at all? I did the math like 10 times and somehow its wrong...? please lmk what the actual answer is because apparently im just incompetent Also giving Brainliest

total= 98

Step-by-step explanation:

so the way to do this is to find the total surface area of the white bench and then subtract the interfacing portion for the support, and then total surface area of support and also subract the area of the interface with the white as well as the ground

bench top area

area of long side *number of sides + area of end *number of ends

(9*2)*4+(2*2)*2= 72+8=80

interface area is area of long side of red portion

5*2=10

support area is same as bench top for rationale

(5*2)*4+(2*2)=40+8=44

total surface area = area of white + area of red - 2* interface area - bottom of red that interfaces with the ground

total = 80+48-2*10-(5*2)

total = 128-20-10

total= 98

im alright what do you need

step-by-step explanation:

sorry, i'm new here and i'm just trying to figure this out. try quizlet. rate 5* you!
