Answer:

$26.88

Explanation:

Cost of a ply wood = $0.56 per square foot

If Dakota wants to build 8 birdhouses and he needs to paint 6 square feet of plywood for each birdhouse, then the total area fir the 8 bird house will be expressed as:

8 * 6

= 48 sq. feet

Hence the area of 8 bird houses is 46sq. feet

Next is to calculate the amount it will cost to make the 8 bird houses.

Since 1 sq. foot = $0.56

48 sq. feet = y

cross multiply

y * 1 = 48 * 0.56

y = 26.88

Hence it will cost Dakota $26.88 to make hid bird houses
