Question

If the wax cost $1.67 a square foot, how much will the wax cost to cover the floor?

$832.50
$1,300.10
$1,664.99
$2,600.19

Answer 1

3. $1664.99

Step-by-step explanation:

1) the area of triangle is

a = 14

b = 19 + 33 - 28 = 24

S = 24 * 14 * 1/2 = 168 ft^2

2) the are of rectangle between the biggest rectangle and triangle is

a = 28 - 19 = 9

b = 14

S = 14 * 9 = 126 ft^2

3) the area of rectangle is

19 * 37 = 703 ft^2

4) the sum of all areas is

703 + 126 + 168 = 997

5) the wax will cost

997 * 1.67 = 1664.99

Answer 2

The area of the floor is 1,036 square feet and the cost of the wax is $1.67 per square foot. Therefore, the total cost of the wax to cover the floor is $1,664.99.

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Calculate the area of the floor

The floor in the image is a rectangle with a length of 37 feet and a width of 28 feet. Therefore, the area of the floor is:

Area = Length * Width = 37 ft * 28 ft = 1,036 sq ft

Step 2: Calculate the cost of the wax

The wax costs $1.67 per square foot, so the total cost of the wax to cover the floor is:

Cost of wax = Area * Cost per square foot = 1,036 sq ft * $1.67 per sq ft = $1,664.99

Therefore, the final answer is $1,664.99.
