उत्तर
External length of book shelf = 85cm = l
Breadth= 25cm
Height = 110cm.
External surface area of shelf while leaving front face of shelf
`=lh+2(lb+bh)`
`=[85xx110+21(85xx25+25xx110)]"cm"^2`
`= 19100"cm"^2`
Area of front face = `(85xx110-75xx100+2(75xx5))"cm"^2`
`=1850+ 750"cm"^2`
`=2600"cm"^2`
Area to be polished = `19100+2600"cm"^2`
`=21700"cm"^2`
Cost of polishing `1"cm"^2`"area" = "Rs". 0.20
Cost of polishing `21700"cm"^2 `are `= "Rs".[21700xx0.20]`
`= "Rs". 4340`
Now, length (l), breath (b), height (h) of each row of book shelf is 75cm, 20cm and 30cm
`((110-20)/3)` respectively.
Area to be painted in row `= 2(l+h)b+lh`
`=[2(75+30)xx20+75xx30]"cm"^2`
`=(4200+2250)"cm"^2`
`=6450"cm"^2`
Area to be painted in 3 rows `=(3xx6450)"cm"^2`
`=19350"cm"^2`
`"Cost of painting" 1"cm"^2 area = Rs. 0.10`
`"Cost of painting 19350 area" = Rs.(19350 xx 0 .10) - "Rs".1935`
Total expense required for polishing and painting the surface of the bookshelf
= Rs.(4340 +1935) = Rs. 6275.
