Answer:

It would cost $580.8 to carpet every room except the kitchen

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to find the area which will covered by carpet

- From the graph we can find the dimension of each room

# Enclosed porch

- It is shaped a square with side length 10 feet

∵ Area of the square = L² , L is the length of the side of the square

∴ A = 10² = 100 feet²

The area of the Enclosed porch is 100 feet²

# Living room

- It is shaped L letter, so we can find its area by divide it into two

rectangles

- Rectangle 1 with dimensions 12 by 10

- Rectangle 2 with dimensions [(14 - 10) + 12] and [(5 + 10) - 8]

∵ Area of rectangle = l × w , where l , w are its dimensions

∴ Area of rectangle 1 = 12 × 10 = 120 feet²

∵ The dimension of rectangle 2 are 16 and 7

∴ Area of rectangle 2 = 16 × 7 = 112 feet²

∵ Area of the living room = Area rectangle 1 + area rectangle 2

∴ Area of the living room = 120 + 112 = 232 feet²

The area of the living room is 232 feet²

# Dining room

- It is shaped a rectangle of dimensions (35 - 16) and 8

∵ The area of the dining room = l × w

∵ l = 19 and w = 8

∴ The area of the dining room = 19 × 8 = 152 feet²

The area of the dining room is 152 feet²

* Lets find the total area to carpet

∵ The dining room , living room and enclosed porch would carpet

∴ The total area to carpet = 100 + 232 + 152 = 484 feet²

- Suppose that carpeting costs $1.20 per square foot

∵ The cost of the carpet is $1.20 per foot²

∵ The area will covered = 484 feet²

∴ The cost of the carpet = 484 × 1.2 = $580.8

* It would cost $580.8 to carpet every room except the kitchen
