20 POINTS PLEASE HELP

Ms. Madero sells tables. She charges $26 per square foot of the tabletop and charges a fixed fee of $75. Which equation could be used to find the area
(x), in square feet, of the tabletop of a table that Ms. Madero sells for $244?
O 26x + 75 = 244
O 26x = 75 +244
O 75x + 26 = 244
O 75x = 26 +244

Answer: 26x+75=244
Step by step explanation:
It is 26 per square foot, the square foot of the table tops vary and people may choose a table with a smaller/larger table tops here the square foot of the table tops is unknown so we verify it as the x variable. 26 per x so 26x
A fixed cost is always added to the variable cost, 26x “variable cost” + 75 fixed cost = 244 final cost
We can find how many square foot was her table top by rearranging the equation.
