A manufacturer’s stated charging worksheet specifies a 10 lb base charge plus 0.04 lb for each foot of line beyond 15 ft. With 40 ft of line, what total charge follows from this supplied worksheet?
- A10 lb
- B11.6 lb
- 11 lb
- D25 lb
Where to look it up
Explicit exercise assumptions; not a universal code requirement.
Why C is correct
Extra line = 40 − 15 = 25 ft. Additional charge = 25 × 0.04 = 1 lb; total = 11 lb. The formula is supplied for this exercise, not a generic charge rule for all equipment.
