The correct answer is 18 sq. ft.
If Rhonda adds a second panel to the right so that they are touching, the total area for the two solar panels would be the same as the area of one panel only since they are touching and not overlapping. Therefore, the total area would still be 9 sq. ft per panel, making it a total of 18 sq. ft for both panels.
