To determine the correct area of the model made up of a rectangle and a parallelogram, we need to calculate the area of each shape and then add them together.

  1. The area of a rectangle is calculated as \( \text{length} \times \text{width} \).
  2. The area of a parallelogram is calculated as \( \text{base} \times \text{height} \).

Since I cannot see the image, I am unable to provide specific measurements. However, you can use the descriptions of your shapes and their measurements to compute their respective areas, then sum those areas to arrive at the total combined area.

After performing the calculations, you can choose the correct response from the provided options. If you'd like to describe the dimensions, I can help you calculate the total area!
