Sal is tiling his entryway. The floor plan is drawn on a unit grid. Each unit length represents 1 foot. Tile costs $2.15 per square foot. How much will Sal pay to tile his entryway? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Sal would pay $93.53 to tile his entryway.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1 unit = 1 foot

Tile cost = $2.15 per square foot

To find how much will lay to tile the entry way represented on the grid in the image below, we have to find the area of the entryway he wants to tile.

The entry way can be decomposed into a trapezoid and a parallelogram. The upper shape form the middle is a trapezoid while the down part from the middle is a parallelogram.

✔️Area of the trapezoid = ½(a + b)*h

Where,

a = 7 ft

b = 4 ft

h = 5 ft

Area of the trapezoid = ½(7 + 4)*5

= ½(11)*5

= 27.5 ft²

✔️Area of the parallelogram = b*h

b = 4 ft

h = 4ft

Area of the parallelogram = 4*4 = 16 ft²

✔️Total area of the entryway to be tiled = 27.5 + 16 = 43.5 ft²

✅Cost to tile 1 ft² = $2.15

Therefore, cost to tile 43.5 ft² = 2.15*43.5 = 93.525 ≈ $93.53

✅Sal would pay $93.53 to tile his entryway.

y - y1 = m(x- x1)

y - (-5) = 2/3(x -0)

y + 5 = 2/3x

y = 2/3x - 5

2/5
