Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $4.92

Step-by-step explanation:

The cost is found by multiplying the number of feet by the cost per foot. The number of feet is the perimeter of the dining room, the sum of the lengths of all the sides.

There are two sides of the rectangular room that are 19 feet, and two sides that are 22 feet, so the total length of trim is ...

  P = 2(L +W) = 2(22 ft + 19 ft) = 2(41 ft) = 82 ft

The cost is then ...

  cost = ($0.06/ft)(82 ft) = $4.92

It will cost Luna $4.92 to buy enough trim.
