The cost of 350 bricks is $11760.00.

The image shows a building constructed using bricks that can be modeled as right rectangular prisms with dimensions of 8 in by 2 in by 21 in. The text on the image states that the bricks cost $0.10 per cubic inch and asks for the cost of 350 bricks, rounded to the nearest cent.

To solve this problem, we first need to find the volume of one brick. The volume of a rectangular prism is calculated by multiplying the length, width, and height of the prism. In this case, the volume of one brick is 8 in * 2 in * 21 in = 336 cubic inches.

Next, we need to multiply the volume of one brick by the number of bricks to find the total volume. The total volume is 336 cubic inches/brick * 350 bricks = 117,600 cubic inches.

Finally, we need to multiply the total volume by the cost per cubic inch to find the total cost. The total cost is 117,600 cubic inches * $0.10/cubic inch = $11,760.

Rounding this answer to the nearest cent, we get $11,760.00.
