D.$21.78 

Answer 2

Answer: $21.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A rectangular picture frame measures 4.0 inches by 5.5 inches.

We know that the area of rectangle = $length \times width$

Then, the area of the rectangular picture = $4\times5.5=22\ \text{square inches}$

Also, it is given that , to cover the picture inside the frame with glass costs $0.99 per square inch.

Then, the cost of the glass to cover the picture = $0.99 x Area of picture

⇒ The cost of the glass to cover the picture $=\ 0.99\times22=\ 21.78$

∴The cost of the glass to cover the picture = $21.78

Hence, the correct answer is  Option D. $21.78
