D.$21.78

Answer 2

Answer: $21.78

Explanation:

Given : A rectangular picture frame measures 4.0 inches by 5.5 inches.

We know that the area of rectangle =
`length * width`

Then, the area of the rectangular picture =
`4*5.5=22\ \text{square inches}`

Also, it is given that , to cover the picture inside the frame with glass costs $0.99 per square inch.

Then, the cost of the glass to cover the picture = $0.99 x Area of picture

⇒ The cost of the glass to cover the picture
`=\$0.99*22=\$21.78`

∴The cost of the glass to cover the picture = $21.78

Hence, the correct answer is Option D. $21.78
