Question

A company is manufacturing computer monitors that are 22 inches wide, 22 inches across, and 2 inches thick. If the average cost to produce a computer monitor is $0.43 per cubic inch, then about how much would it cost the company to make 10 computer monitors?

Answer 1

$4162.4

Explanation:

As per the question statement,

The computer monitors are in cuboid structure.

Width of computer monitors = 22 inches

Length of computer monitors = 22 inches

Thickness of computer monitors = 2 inches

Average cost of production per cubic inch = $0.43

To find:

Cost to the company to make 10 monitors.

Solution:

Volume of a cuboid is given as following:

`Volume = Length * Width * Height`

Volume of one computer monitor as per the given dimensions =
`22* 22 * 2` = 968 cubic inches

Volume of 10 such monitors = 968
`*` 10 = 9680 cubic inches

Cost of manufacturing of 1 cubic inch = $0.43

Cost of manufacturing of 9680 cubic inch = $0.43
`*` 9680 = $4162.4
