So first you would divide 12 in half to figure out how many inches it moves in 24 hours (or 1 day) which would be 6 inches every 24 hours. You then multiply 6 (inches per day) by 7 (# of days). You end up with 42 inches in 7 days. Hope this helps

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

Troyanec [42]

Area of the room = 14*15 = 210 ft^2
Cost padding = 210*89 = 186.90
Cost of carpet = 210 * 2.99 = 627.90
Perimeter of the room = 2*15 + 2*14 = 58 ft
Cost of strip = 58*0.19 = 11.02

Total cost of supplies = 186.90 + 627.90 + 11.02 = 825.82 Answer
