Question

You need to buy the supplies to carpet a 15 foot by 14 foot room. The padding costs $0.89 per square foot and the carpeting costs $2.99 per square foot. You also need tack strips to go around the perimeter of the room that cost $0.19 per foot.

Answer 1

This is what I got for the answer

Answer 2

15 times 14 = 210 square feet. 15+15+14+14 = 58 foot perimeter. $0.89 times 210 feet = $186.90. $2.99 times 210 feet = $627.90. $0.19 times 58 feet = $11.02. Add $186.90 + $627.90 + $11.02 = $825.82
