You want to order carpet for an area in your house. the room measures 12 feet by 10 feet. remember, area = length × width. the carpet is sold in square yards. how many square yards of carpet will you need? if your answer has a decimal, round up to the next whole number.

We will need 120 square yards of carpet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The room measures 12 feet by 10 feet.

i.e. length = 12 feet

and width= 10 feet

Also, the area of a rectangle is given by :-

Now, the area of the rectangular carpet will be :-

Hence, we will need 120 square yards of carpet.

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.

rick has $1400 and sally has $1500

step-by-step explanation:

to find amount of money rick has after 10 years :

principal = $1000 , time = 10 years , rate = 4% annually

to find amount of money sally has after 10 years :

her friend gives to pay her $50 per year, therefore money she has after 10 years = 50 × 10 = $500

also, sally gets $1000 after 10 years,

therefore, total amount of money sally has after 10 years = 500 + 1000 = $1500

so, after 10 years : rick has $1400 and sally has $1500
