The Green Party at a large university plans to line both sides of a 24-foot-long hallway with posters endorsing a candidate for state senate. Each of the posters costs them $6.25 , they’re 3 feet wide, and there will be 4 feet between posters. Assume the first poster on each end will be exactly even with the start of the hall. Estimate how much this will cost.

Respuesta :

The total cost of putting the posters on the wall is $25.

What is the cost of putting the posters on the wall?

If the first poster on each end will be exactly even with the start of the wall, it means that after the two posters have been placed on either side of the wall, the total space left would be 10 feet (24 -  3 - 3 - 4 - 4).

After the first poster has been placed on both ends of the wall, a second poster would be placed on either ends of the wall. Total space now left is 4 feet (10 - 3 - 3). So there can only be four posters on the wall.

Total cost of 4 posters = 4 x $6.25 = $25
