I think the answer is C

Answer 2

The area of bedroom is:

Option: C C) 585 ft^2

Explanation:

The area of bedroom is equal to the area of two rectangle:

On rectangle of dimension:

3 yd×15 yd.

and the other of dimension:

5 yd×4 yd

• The area of first rectangle is:

Area(1)=3×15

Area(1)=45 yd^2

• Similarly the area of other rectangle is:

Area(2)=4×5

Area(2)=20 yd^2

Hence, the total area of bedroom is:

Area=Area(1)+Area(2)

Area=45+20

Area=65 square yard.

We know that:

1 square yard= 9 square feet

65 square yard=585 square feet.

Hence, the area of bedroom is:

585 ft^2
