Answer: Total area  2800 sq.yards

Step-by-step explanation:

First roof  

2 rectangles       and      2    trangles

for rectangles area = b*h

then area of one rectangle = 20*30  = 600 sq.yards

We have 2 rectangles then  2 * 600 = 1200 s. yards

for triangles area 1/2 b*h

Then area of one triangle   = 0.5* 5*20  = 50 sq.yards

We have 2 triangles  then 2 * 50  = 100 sq.yards : 1300 sq.yards

Total area first roof  = 1300 sq.yards

Second roof    

Area of rectangle = b*h       = 25*60   =  1500sq.yards

Total area second roof  = 1500 sq.yards

max2010maxim [7]
Gross pay = $2,759.00
Total deductions = 7.65%+12%+7% = 26.65% = 0.2665

By thumb rule, rent and other fixed expenses ≤ 28% of Monthly gross salary

Therefore,
Allowed housing and fixed expenses = 0.28*2,759 = $772.52

Then, a. is the correct answer.
