Mr. Santos is carpeting his living room. The room measures 21 feet by 15 feet. The carpeting costs $9 per square foot. How much carpeting will he need (in square feet), and how much will it cost?

Answers

Answer: 315 square feet is needed for carpeting and It costs $2835.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of room = 21 feet

Width of room = 15 feet

As we know the formula for "Area of room ":

$Area=Length* Width\n\nArea=12* 15\n\nArea=315\ ft^2$

Hence, 315 square feet is needed for carpeting.

Cost of per square foot of carpeting = $9

Total cost will be

$9* 315\n\n=\$2835$

Hence, it costs $2835.

21*15=315 sqft
315*$9=2,835

Which is a solution to the equation?(x - 3)(x - 5) = 35
x= -8
x=-5
x=2
x = 10

Answers

(x-3)(x-5)=35

Multiply the brackets together

x*x-5*x-3*x-3*5

x^2-8x+15=35

Move +35 to the other side. Sign changes from +35 to -35

x^2-8x+15-35=35-35

x^2-8x-20=0

(x-10)(x+2)=0

x-10=0 x+2=0

Move -10 to the other side. Sign changes from -10 to +10

x-10+10=0+10 x+2-2=0-2

x=10 x=-2

Answer: x=10

Answer: x = 10

Just plug in the different numbers to see which ones equal 35.

I’m going to plug in x = -8 into the equation
(x - 3)(x - 5) = 35
(-8 - 3)(-8 - 5) = 35 (substitute -8 for x)
(-11)(-13) = 35
143 = 35
This answer is wrong because 143 does not equal 35

Now let’s plug in x = 10
(x - 3)(x - 5) = 35
(10 - 3)(10 - 5) = 35 (substitute 10 for x)
(7)(5) = 35
35 = 35
This solution works because 35 equals 35
