Line a and line c are parallel lines that are given as a || c. Then the correct option is C.

<h3>How are parallel straight lines related?</h3>

Parallel lines have the same slope since the slope is like a measure of steepness and since parallel lines are of the same steepness, thus, are of the same slope.

Since the given parallel line has equation y = 2x + 2, thus its slope is 2 and thus, the slope of the needed line is 2 too.

Then we have

The distance between line a and line c is constant. Then line a and line c are parallel lines.

Line a || line c. Then the correct option is C.

Answer:

4448 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula $A = 2((l)x(w) + (l)x(h) + (w)x(h))$ we can take the length, width and height and plug them in. $A = 2(44x21 + 44x20 + 21x20)$ , solving this equation we get $4448 feet^{2}$ .
