23. The Paint Project This project will be done in pairs

24. You and a friend want to go on a trip for spring break next year. Where do you want to go?

25. Let’s assume that a plane ticket costs $1500 per person ($3000 for two). How much are hotels, food, transportation, souvenirs? Just one problem! How will you ever afford to go? You are broke!

26. To raise the money, you and your friend have decided to paint houses during the coming summer. Each of you will have to make $1,500 to cover the cost of the plane trip. In addition, you must include research for the extra spending money you will need for your trip.

27. Another problem… you don’t have money for supplies to paint the houses. Your parents have decided that they will front your start-up costs if you can explain to them in detail how much everything will cost, what you will charge per house, and prove to them that you will be able to earn the money necessary to go on your spring break trip.

28. Find out how much money you are going to need to buy the supplies to paint the houses: Brushes and rollers…...$50 Ladders ……………... $75 Clean up materials……$30 Paint……………………$10 a gallon The paint is now on sale for $10 per gallon. One can of paint will cover 100 square feet. You will not paint any of the roofs, doors, or windows. You will only be buying the supplies once.

29. Luckily for you and your friend, you have been contracted to paint five identical houses and you will be able to identify the amount of paint that you will need. A sketch of one of the houses is attached. All measurements are in feet.

30. Be thorough and creative in your proposal so that your parents are reassured and convinced of their investment in your house-painting endeavor!

31. Step 1: Find the area of the house (complete worksheet) and how much start-up costs are to paint the 5 houses

32. Front:Area of whole house (including windows and doors)

33. Inside:Find the area of the windows and doors (do not include trim!)

34. Back: Find the total area of one house minus the windows and doors. Then multiply by 5 for five houses.

35. Each can of paint covers 100 square feet, so divide the total square footage by 100 to find out how many cans of paint you will need. HINT!!!! You will need 68 cans.

36. Step 2:Research spending costs for your trip (housing, transportation, food, and extra spending money)

37. Find the total cost of the trip Step 3: (Step 2 + $1500 per plane ticket)

38. Step 4:Find how much you need to charge per house to cover your trip

39. Step 5: Write a proposal for your parents following the guidelines on the back of this page asking for the money for start-up costs only to paint the 5 houses.
