If carpet costs $24.61 per square yard and is available in whole square yards only, find the cost of carpeting the three bedroom floors in the accompanying floor plan.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of each bedroom is the product of its length and width.

  Bdrm 1 area = (14 ft)×(14 ft) = 196 ft²

  Bdrm 2 area = (11 ft)×(12 ft) = 132 ft²

  Bdrm 3 area = (12 ft)×(11 ft) = 132 ft²

Then the total area of carpet needed is ...

  196 ft² +132 ft² +132 ft² = 460 ft²

There are 9 ft² in each square yard, so the number of square yards needed is ...

  (460 ft²)/(9 ft²/yd²) = 51.11... yd²

Since we can only obtain whole square yards, 52 square yards are needed. The cost of that will be ...

  (52 yd²)×($24.61/yd²) = $1279.72

The cost of carpeting for the three bedrooms will be $1279.72.

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x

f(x)=2/3x-8, which give g(x) the greatest value.
