Answer:

The total cost of adding wallpaper to the room is $487.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, how I got the answer is:

1. The shorter sides of the rectangle are 12 and the longer sides are 14.

2. The formula for a rectangle is A = l x w. The "l" means length and the "w" means width. 14 is the length and 12 is the width. So you should now have A = 14 x 12. If you multiply 14 by 12, you will get 168.

3. Since 1 square foot of carpet costs $2.90, then you should multiply by 168, which will give you $487.20 and that's pretty much it.

Hope this helps! :)

Jessica is a custodian at Oracle Arena. She waxes 20 m2 of the floor in 3/5 of an hour. Jessica waxes the floor at a constant ra

Ghella [55]

to solve this, you need to set up an equation to solve for <em>x, </em>the number of square meters waxed in an hour:

$\frac{20}{3/5} = \frac{x }{1 }$

you can use cross multiplication to solve for x:

$\frac{3}{5} x = 20$

$3x = 100\\x = 100/3$

so jessica can wax 100/3 square meters per hour. you can convert this to decimal form (which would be 33.3 repeating) or you can leave it in fraction form.
