Answer:
She need <u>96 square feet</u> carpet to cover the room.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Tina covers the floor of a room with carpeting. She uses carpet squares that measure one foot on each side.
Now, to find carpet squares does she need to cover a room that 8 feet wide by 12 feet long.
So, the dimensions of room are:
Length = 12 feet.
Width = 8 feet.
Now, getting the area by putting formula:
<u><em>Area of room = Length × width</em></u>
Therefore, she need 96 square feet carpet to cover the room.
Commenter jdoe said it right: solve for y and leave the rest on the other side.
-x + 3y = 6
3y = 6 + x add x on both sides
3y = x + 6 rearrange to get the x first
y = (x + 6) /3 divide both sides by 3
y = x/3 + 6/3 split the numerator (caution - never split denominators)
y = x/3 + 2 simplify 6/3
Thus the line in slope intercept form of y = mx + b is y =
