Question

You work for a printing company that makes banners. A customer orders one banner in the shape of a rectangle and another in the shape of a triangle. The rectangle has a length of 10 feet and a width of 3 feet. The triangle has a base of 4 feet and a height of 3 feet. The customer will be charged $5.25 plus tax per square foot. Not including tax, how much is the customer charged for the two signs? $105.00 $110.25 $141.75 $189.00 $220.50

Answer 1

$189

Step-by-step explanation:

Price per square feet = $5.25

1. Calculating the fee for the rectangle.

Length 10 feet and width 3 feet

Area= Lents x Width i.e 10X3= 30 feet squared

Charges will be 30 feet squared X$ 5.25= $157.5

2. Calculating fee for the triangle.

Area =(base x height ) divided by 2

i.e 1/2(4feetx3 feet)= 1/2x12

Chargers will be 6 feet squared x 5.25= $ 31.5

3. Total fee =$ 157.5 + $31.5= $189

Customer will pay $ 189 plus taxes
