Answer:
4:
114,$118.56
5. 77
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the area of the wall, you multiply 15 x 8, then subtract (2 x 3) from that answer.
15 x 8 = 120
120 - (3 x 2) =
120 - 6 = 114ft^2
To find the cost, multiply the area by the cost:
1.04 x 114 = $118.56
Since the side with 3.5 cm is congruent with another side, that means that side is also 3.5 cm. I like to break up the figure in this situation, into 2 rectangles. The first is 8 cm x 3.5 cm, and the other being 3.5 cm x 14 cm.
8 x 3.5 = 28 cm^2
14 x 3.5 = 49cm^2
Add together to get the area:
49 + 28 = 77 cm^2
