Answer:
Yes, she can.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to find the surface area of the footrest and see if it greater than or less than 1 square yard.
The surface area of a rectangular prism is given as:
A=2(wl+hl+hw)
where w = width, l = length, h = height
The footrest is 15 inches by 7 inches by 9 inches. Its surface area is:
A = 2[(7 * 15) + (9 * 15) + (9 * 7)]
A = 2[105 + 135 + 63]
A = 2 * 303 = 606 square inches
1 square inch = 0.000771605 square yards
=> 606 square inches = 606 * 0.000771605 = 0.468 square yards
Since the surface area of the prism is less than 1 square yard, she can completely cover the footrest with the fabric.
