Shayla is going to paint a wall. The wall is 23 feet long by 8 feet high. A gallon of paint costs $11 and covers 320 square feet of area. If the wall requires two coats of paint, what is the minimum cost of painting Shayla's wall?

$12.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the wall is 23 feet long and 8 feet high.

As the wall is rectangular, so the area of the wall,

A=23x8=184 square feet.

As a gallon of paint costs $11 and covers 320 square feet of area, so

Cost of paint for 1 square foot area = $ 11/320 per square foot.

Cost for 1 coat of paint = $ (11/320)x184

Cost for 2 coat of paint = $ (11/320)x184x2= $ 12.65

Hence, cost requires for 2 coats of paint is $ 12.65.

none of the above.

for one of the equations to be used in the process, there has to be a term in the equation since squared is .

since there is only a term in the first equation, we cannot derive a from completing the square.

solving with completing the square
