ANSWER


4400W

Step-by-step explanation

To find the total wattage that the generator needs to supply, we have to find the sum of the power that all the equipment consumes.

Therefore, we have:


\begin{gathered} T=1400+2800+100+100 \\ T=4400W \end{gathered}

That is the total wattage the generator needs to supply.
