Answer:
$89.7
Explanation:
We are given with
height = 9 feet
length = 10 feet
wall brackets:
48-in costing $12.95
60-in costing $16.95
distance of brackets from ends = 1 foot
maximum distance between brackets= 24 inches
The brackets are
48/12 = 4 feet
and
60/12 = 5 feet
One of each must be used to cover the height of the shelf
The length of the shelf is
60 inch
subtracting 1 in from each side for the allowance
60 - 2 = 58 in
Dividing by 24 inches
58/24 = 2.41 ~ 3
The total cost is
($12.95 + $16.95) * 3 = $89.7
The total cost of the brackets is $89.7
