Sebastien hand-crafts circular braided rugs. The graph shows the prices of various sizes of his rugs. A customer ordered 3 identical rugs for a total of $1,350. Use the graph to determine the radius of each rug in the order. (Enter numerical answer only).
Please help.

Answer 1

Answer:

The radius of each rug on the order is 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the relationship between the price of a rug and the radius of the rug

The number of rugs ordered by the customer = 3 rugs

The total cost of the rugs ordered by the customer = $1,350

Therefore, the cost of each rug = $1,350/3 = $450

The radius of the rugs as determined from the chart

At $450, the radius of the rug = 6 ft

Therefore;

Given that all the rugs are identical, the radius of each rug on the order = 6 ft.
