$50.40
To find the cost of covering the ceiling with acoustic tiles, you need to calculate the area of the ceiling and then multiply it by the cost per square foot.
To calculate the area of the ceiling, you need to multiply the length by the width of the room:
Area of the ceiling = Length × Width
= 18 ft × 14 ft
= 252 ft²
The area of the ceiling is 252 square feet.
Now, to find the cost of covering the ceiling, you need to multiply the area of the ceiling by the cost per square foot of the acoustic tiles.
Cost of covering the ceiling = Area of the ceiling × Cost per square foot
= 252 ft² × $7.50/ft²
= $1890
Therefore, the cost of covering the ceiling with acoustic tiles would be $1890.
