Answer 1

the total cost of the brackets before tax is $89.7

Explanation:

The computation of the total cost of the bracket before tax is as follows

Given that

height = 9 feet

length = 10 feet

wall brackets:

48-in costing $12.95

60-in costing $16.95

The distance of brackets from ends is 1 foot

The maximum distance between brackets is 24 inches

Now based on the above information

The brackets are

= 48 ÷ 12

= 4 feet

And

= 60 ÷ 12

= 5 feet

The length of the shelf is 60 inch

Now the 1 could be deducted from each side

= 60 - 2

= 58 in

Now Divide it by 24 inches

= 58 ÷ 24

= 2.41 ~ 3

Finally, The total cost is

= ($12.95 + $16.95) × 3

= $89.7

Hence, the total cost of the brackets before tax is $89.7
