Question

Pls Help! Geometry
How much will the molding cost?

Answer 1

Answer: $412.50

Explanation:

The area of the square formed by combining the painting and the molding is
`(25)(28)=700` square inches.

The area of the painting itself is
`(22)(25)=550` square inches.

Therefore, the area of the molding is
`700-550=150` square inches, and thus costs
`(150)(2.75)=\$412.50`
