the rent charged for offices in a building is proportional to the area of the office. the monthly rent for one office with an ar
ea of 1,800 square feet is $1,200. Mr.Halloran pays $18,000 each year for another office in this building. what it the area, in square feet, of the office mr.halloran rents?
Now to find the area of mr. halloran’s office $18,000/12 months = $1,500 per month $1,500•1.5 sqft = 2,250 square feet So mr. Halloran’s office area is 2,250 square feet and he pays $1,500 per month
