The total cost of the carpet is

900

dollars.

The total area of the floor is found by multiplying the length by the width (

15 \times 12 = 180

square feet). Since the carpet costs

5

dollars per square foot, the total cost is the area multiplied by the unit price (

180 \times 5 = 900

).

\$21,060

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\$2,340$

Cevap

The total cost of the acoustic paneling needed is

\$2,340

.

The correct answer is found by first determining the gross area of the wall (

36 \times 15 = 540 \text{ sq ft}

) and subtracting the area of the three windows (

3 \times 24 = 72 \text{ sq ft}

) to get a net coverage area of

468 \text{ sq ft}

. Because the paneling is sold by the square yard, the square footage must be converted by dividing by

9

(since

1 \text{ sq yd} = 9 \text{ sq ft}

). This gives

52 \text{ sq yd}

. Multiplying this by the price of

\$45

per square yard yields a total cost of

\$2,340

\$1,500

To find the total cost, first calculate the area of the rectangular space by multiplying the length by the width (

20 \times 15 = 300\text{ square feet}

). Then, multiply the total square footage by the cost per square foot (

300 \times 5 = 1,500

).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total area of the rectangular play area.

\text{Area} = 20\text{ feet} \times 15\text{ feet} = 300\text{ square feet}

The cost of the material is based on the square footage required to cover the surface, so the area must be determined first.

2

Multiply the total area by the cost per square foot to find the total cost.

\text{Total Cost} = 300\text{ sq ft} \times \$5.00/\text{sq ft} = \$1,500

This determines the final price by scaling the calculated area by the given unit cost.

\$1,200

\$7,200

\$21,600

\$64,800

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\$7,200$

Cevap

The total cost to coat the entire roof is

\$7,200

.

To find the total cost, the area must be calculated in square yards because the price is given per square yard. Since

3\text{ feet} = 1\text{ yard}

, the dimensions of the roof are

30\text{ yards}

by

20\text{ yards}

. The area is

30 \times 20 = 600\text{ square yards}

. Multiplying this area by the

\$12

cost per square yard yields

\$7,200

.

A homeowner is applying a protective sealant to a rectangular wooden patio that completely surrounds a rectangular swimming pool. The overall dimensions of the patio and pool together are $40\text{ feet}$ long and $30\text{ feet}$ wide. The swimming pool inside measures $25\text{ feet}$ long and $15\text{ feet}$ wide. One gallon of sealant covers exactly $150\text{ square feet}$ of wood and costs $\$28$ . If the homeowner must purchase whole gallons of sealant, what is the total cost, in dollars, of the sealant required for the wooden patio?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 168

Cevap

The total cost of the sealant is $168.

The net area of the patio is found by subtracting the pool area from the total area (

1200 - 375 = 825\text{ sq ft}

). Dividing this by the coverage rate (

825 \div 150 = 5.5

) shows how many gallons are needed. Since partial gallons are not sold, this rounds up to

6\text{ gallons}

. At

\$28

per gallon, the cost is

6 \times 28 = \$168

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the total combined area of the patio and the pool.

1200\text{ square feet}

To find the gross area before removing the inner section, multiply the overall length by the width (

40 \times 30

).

2

Calculate the area of the swimming pool.

375\text{ square feet}

To find the area that does not require sealant, multiply the pool's length by its width (

25 \times 15

).

3

Subtract the pool area from the total area.

825\text{ square feet}

To find the net area of the wooden patio that actually needs sealant (

1200 - 375

).

4

Divide the net area by the coverage of one gallon of sealant.

5.5\text{ gallons}

To determine the exact volume of sealant required (

825 \div 150

).

5

Round up to the next whole gallon.

6\text{ gallons}

Because the homeowner must purchase whole gallons, any fraction requires buying an additional full gallon.

6

Multiply the number of gallons by the cost per gallon.

\$168

To calculate the final total cost (

6 \times 28

).

The wall is a rectangle, so its area is found by multiplying the width (

15\text{ feet}

) by the height (

8\text{ feet}

), which equals

120\text{ square feet}

. Since the wallpaper costs

\$4

per square foot, multiplying the total area by the rate (

120 \times 4

) gives a total cost of

\$480

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1

Calculate the area of the rectangular wall.

15 \times 8 = 120\text{ square feet}

The area determines how much surface the wallpaper needs to cover.

2

Calculate the total cost of the wallpaper.

120 \times 4 = 480\text{ dollars}

Multiplying the total square footage by the cost per square foot provides the final amount.

\$1,000

\$3,000

\$9,000

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $\$1,000$

Cevap

The total cost of the flooring is

\$1,000

.

The correct answer is found by first calculating the net area to be covered in square feet (

2,700 - 450 = 2,250\text{ sq ft}

). Then, this area must be converted to square yards by dividing by

9

(since

1\text{ square yard} = 9\text{ square feet}

), resulting in

250\text{ square yards}

. Finally, multiplying by the rate of

\$4

per square yard yields

\$1,000

.

Adım Adım Çözüm

A contractor is applying a specialized primer to a rectangular warehouse wall that is $60\text{ feet}$ long and $18\text{ feet}$ high. The wall contains a rectangular loading bay door measuring $30\text{ feet}$ long and $12\text{ feet}$ high, which will not receive the primer. If the primer material costs $\$15$ per square yard, what is the total cost, in dollars, of the primer needed for the wall?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 1200

Cevap

1200

The total gross area of the wall is

60 \times 18 = 1080\text{ square feet}

. The area of the unpainted loading door is

30 \times 12 = 360\text{ square feet}

. Subtracting the door's area yields a net area of
