The wood on the back deck of a house needs waterproofing. The shape of the deck is a rectangle with the length * 35 feet and a width of 5 yards. A gallon can of waterproof stain covers 80 square feet and costs $19.99 per can plus 7% sales tax. You go to the hardware store to purchase the waterproof stain needed to complete the job. You give the cashier $150.

How much change do you receive, or how much additional cash must you find in order to be able to pay for all of the
stain you need? You must show all calculations.
Area of Rectangle = length X width
You cannot split up a can of stain.
You must show all calculations.
