B. 585 square inches :)

Explanation:

Answer 2

B.

Explanation:

The street sign is composed of two rectangles and 1 triangle.

Painted area = area of triangle + area of rectangle 1 + area of square

✔️Area of triangle = ½bh

b = 15 in.

h = 8 in.

Area of triangle = ½*15*8 = 60 in.²

✔️Area of rectangle 1 = L*W

L = 50 in.

W = 6 in.

Area = 50*6 = 300 in.²

✔️Area of Square = s²

s = 15 in.

Area = 15² = 255 in.²

✅Painted area = 60 + 300 + 225 = 585 in.²
