6. Use the image to answer the question.

A piecewise linear function is graphed in the first quadrant of the coordinate plane. The axes both range from 0 to 80 in increments of 5.

To find the total cost for grooming both dogs, we would typically refer to a piecewise linear function that indicates the cost based on the weight of the dogs. However, since I don't have access to the image you mentioned, I can't directly analyze the cost from the graph.

In order to determine the total cost, you would do the following:

  1. Identify the cost for grooming a 20-pound dog from the graph.
  2. Identify the cost for grooming a 45-pound dog from the graph.
  3. Add these two costs together to find the total grooming cost.

For example, if the graph shows that grooming a 20-pound dog costs $X and grooming a 45-pound dog costs $Y, then the total cost would be:

Total cost = X + Y

Without the specific values from the graph, I can't provide the exact total cost. Please refer to the provided graph to read the costs for each dog, and then you can add them together for the final answer. If you can share the data or provide descriptions related to the graph, I'd be happy to help you calculate it!
