<h3>Answer:</h3>

c.  32.56 ft

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

The circumference C of a circle in terms of its diameter d is ...

  C = πd

Then the length of half a circle of that diameter will be ...

  C/2 = (π/2)d

The total length of trim needed is ...

  perimeter = 2 × rectangle sides + rectangle bottom + half-circle top

  = 2 × 6 + 8 + (π/2) × 8

  perimeter = 20 + 4π ≈ 32.56637 . . . . . feet

  ≈ 32.57 ft . . . . . most closely matches option C

_____

<em>Comment on the answer mismatch</em>

It is common on some homework web sites to see the requirement "use 3.14 for π." This is an approximation good only to 3 significant digits, so any answer obtained using this value can only be good to 3 significant digits.

As here, the problem requirement often is for an answer of 4 or more significant digits. The value 3.14 for π is inappropriate in such cases, and gives wrong answers. (The computer may say they're the right choice, but they're not the solution to the problem.)

Here, for example, if Tuan obtains only 32.56 ft of trim, he will be short a small amount and unable to finish his project completely.

Answer:

The order from greatest to least :

Project B > Project  A > Project  D > Project  C

Step-by-step explanation:

Project A : A 20-inch by 15-inch blueprint with a scale of 1 inch to 4 feet and a projected cost of $22,000.

Scale factor = \frac{1 inch}{4 feet}

Length of the office building on blueprint = l =20 inch

Width of the office building on blueprint = b =15 inch

Real length of the office building on blueprint = L

=\frac{1 inch}{4feet}=\frac{20 inch}{L}

L = 80 feet

Real width of the office building on blueprint = B

\frac{1 inch}{4feet}=\frac{15 inch}{B}

B = 60 feet

Area of the building = L\times B=80 ft\times 60=4800 ft^2

Cost of project = $22,000

Cost of project per square foot =\frac{\$22,000}{4800 ft^2}=4.58 \$/ft^2

Project B : A 10-inch by 8-inch blueprint with a scale of 1 inch to 8 feet and a projected cost of $25,000.

Scale factor = \frac{1 inch}{8 feet}

Length of the office building on blueprint = l =10 inch

Width of the office building on blueprint = b =8 inch

Real length of the office building on blueprint = L

=\frac{1 inch}{8feet}=\frac{10 inch}{L}

L = 80 feet

Real width of the office building on blueprint = B

\frac{1 inch}{8feet}=\frac{8 inch}{B}

B = 64 feet

Area of the building = L\times B=80 ft\times 64=5120 ft^2

Cost of project = $25,000

Cost of project per square foot =\frac{\$25,000}{5120 ft^2}=4.88 \$/ft^2

Project C : A 15-inch by 12-inch blueprint with a scale of 1 inch to 6 feet and a projected cost of $27,000.

Scale factor = \frac{1 inch}{6 feet}

Length of the office building on blueprint = l =15 inch

Width of the office building on blueprint = b =12 inch

Real length of the office building on blueprint = L

=\frac{1 inch}{6 feet}=\frac{15 inch}{L}

L = 90 feet

Real width of the office building on blueprint = B

\frac{1 inch}{6feet}=\frac{12 inch}{B}

B = 72 feet

Area of the building = L\times B=90 ft\times 72ft=6480 ft^2

Cost of project = $27,000

Cost of project per square foot =\frac{\$27,000}{6480ft^2}=4.17\$/ft^2

Project D :An 8-inch by 6-inch blueprint with a scale of 1 inch to 12 feet and a projected cost of $30,000

Scale factor = \frac{1 inch}{12 feet}

Length of the office building on blueprint = l = 8 inch

Width of the office building on blueprint = b =6 inch

Real length of the office building on blueprint = L

=\frac{1 inch}{12 feet}=\frac{8 inch}{L}

L = 96 feet

Real width of the office building on blueprint = B

\frac{1 inch}{12feet}=\frac{6 inch}{B}

B = 72 feet

Area of the building = L\times B=96 ft\times 72ft=6912 ft^2

Cost of project = $27,000

Cost of project per square foot =\frac{\$30,000}{6912ft^2}=4.34\$/ft^2

Project B > Project  A > Project  D > Project  C
