Am buys a rectangular piece of carpet that is 22 feet by 9 feet. The carpet costs $2.00 per square foot. The installer charges $0.75 per square foot to install the carpet but does not charge for the extra carpet not installed.

What is the cost for Amy to buy the carpet and have it installed? Do NOT include tax. Make sure to SHOW YOUR WORK.

The carpet is 198 sq ft total
198 * 2.75 = Total
Total = $544.50
