<span>You first need to find the area of the living room.
Both of the two stores are dealing with square yard. The first thing you need to do is convert your feet to yards.
There are 3 feet in 1 yard. So divide the number of feet by 3 to get the yards.

12/3 = 4 yards
19/3 = 6.333 yards.

You then multiple those numbers to get your square yardage of the room (i.e. your area)

4*6.333 = 25.33333 sq. yards.

Now, look at what the first store is offering. You need to calculate the price. Originally, the carpet will cost $18 the number of square yardage for the carpet ONLY. So, multiple
$18 by your area of 25.33

18*25.333 = $456

Now, there is a sale of 20% off the carpet only price. You know the price so you need to take 20% of that and then subtract that number from the original total. Think of it like this. If you went and something was 50% off, and it was originally $10. 1/2 of 10 is 5. 10-5 is 5. That's the price you would pay. Use the same process with this problem.

$456*.20 = 91.20
(remember a % is the same as moving the decimal over 2 places.)
Take 91.20 off of 456

456-91.20 = 364.80

Then, find the installation price. They say that they will charge $2 per square yard. Your square yardage is 25.333. Now multiple those two numbers.

2*25.333=50.66

Add that price to the 364.80 to get the TOTAL for the first store.

364.80+50.66=415.47 (rounded off from 415.466)

Cindy's carpet:

they have $18 per square yard. Again, multiple 18 by your square yardage.

18*25.333 = 455.99

If it is 10% off, you go through the same process as before.

455.99*.10=45.59

Subtract that from the whole

455.99-45.59 = 410.40 </span>

Two ocean beaches are being affected by erosion. The table shows the width, in feet, of each beach measured at high tide where 1
Rudiy27

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Erosion patterns

(a) Western Beach

In 15 yr, Western Beach erodes from 100 ft to 70 ft.

The rate of erosion is 30 ft/15 yr = 2 ft/yr.

(b) Dunes Beach

In 15 yr, Dunes Beach builds up from 20 ft to 95 ft.

The rate of buildup is 75 ft/15 yr = 5 ft/yr.

Beaches with equal width

The western beach loses 2 feet each year, every 5 years the beach loses 10 feet. Dunes beach gets 5 feet every year, and every 5 years the beach loses 25 feet.

2.From the table, it appears that the beaches will have the same width sometime in year 11 (2006).

wester beach at 11 years it was 78.

dunes beach it was 75.

and these are the most closest value beatween two  beaches

3. even if the rate remains constant we wont be able to have same width . because the width of weatern beach is decreasing and dunes beach is increasing. so the year their width was almost equal was year 11th. they will never have the same width because western beach is going down in width and dunes is going up.

hope it helps.  hope i get brainlist

Can you please help me with this question
Reptile [31]

Answer:

The answer is 384

A = 6 a^2 = 6 · 8^2 = 384

A = area

There are 6 sides to a cube, so you multiply the surface( 8 in ) squared by the sides.

In short, 8 · 8 (8^2) = 64

              64 · 6 = 384

How do I remove the 1 on the numerator when solving for x <br>1/x = 5 <br>​
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

x = \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{x} = 5 ( multiply both sides by x to clear the fraction )

1 = 5x ( divide both sides by 5 )

\frac{1}{5} = x
