The total cost of the brackets before tax = $89.70
Height = 9 feet
length = 10 feet
Wall brackets come in 48-in cost $12.95 and 60-in costing $16.95
Distance of brackets from ends = 1 foot
Maximum distance between brackets = 24 inches
The brackets are:
48/12= 4feet, and 60/12 = 5feet
One of each must be used to cover the height of the shelf.
The length of the shelf is 60 inches
On subtracting 1 foot from each side of the allowance we get, 60-2 = 58-in
Then dividing by 24 we get
58/24 ≈3
The Total cost = (12.95 + 16.95)×3
= $89.70
