Ian needs to replace two concrete sections in his sidewalk, as modeled below. Each section is 36 inches by
36 inches and 4 inches deep. He can mix his own concrete for $3.25 per cubic foot. How much money will it cost Ian to replace the two concrete sections?

$19.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply the next formula:

Volume of a rectangular prism = width x length x height

Replacing with the values given:

Since 1= 1/12 foot

36 in /12 = 3 foot  (length and wifth)

4 in /12 = 1/3 foot  (height)

V = 3 x 3 x 1/3 = 3ft3

Next, we multiply it by 2 (since there are 2 sections):

3 x 2 = 6 ft3

Finally we multiply it by the cost of each cubic foot:

6 x 3.25 = $19.5
