Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Dimensions of the room------------------- >16*13
1 in---------------- >0.0833333 foot
3 in----------------- >x
x=3*.0833333=0.25 ft
Let
<span>C-------------- > dimensions of the piece of carpet that Charlotte must purchase
C-------------- > (16+2*0.25)*(13+2*0.25)---------- > (16.50)*(13.50)=222.75 ft</span>²
<span>
The answer a the question 1) is 16.50 feet X 13.50 feet</span>
The answer a the question 2) is 222.75 ft²
<span>3. How many hours should it take for the four-person crew to lay the flooring in Charlotte's bedroom?
if </span><span>two-person carpet crew can lay 50 square feet of carpet---------- > 1 hour</span><span>
four person </span>carpet crew can lay 100 square feet of carpet---------- > 1 hour
therefore
if 100 ft² carpet----------------------- > 1 hour
222.75 ft² carpet--------------------- > x
x=222.75/100=2.2275 hours=2.23 hours
The answer is 2.23 hours
<em>Answer</em>
3

Let's start by factoring the expression; 3x + 24.
3 is common in both term. So, factor it out.
3x + 24 = 3(x + 8)
The number that would fill in the blank to complete the factorization of 3x+24 is 3.
