It will cost $440 to carpet the room.
To find the cost of carpeting the room, we need to calculate the area of the room in square yards.
First, let's convert the dimensions of the room from feet to yards:
15 ft = 5 yd (since 1 yd = 3 ft, 15 ft = 5 yd)
12 ft = 4 yd
Next, calculate the area of the room in square yards:
Area = Length x Width = 5 yd x 4 yd = 20 square yards
Finally, multiply the area by the cost per square yard:
Cost = Area x Price
= 20 x $22/square yard
= $440
Complete question
A bedroom is 15 ft long and 12 ft wide. How much will it cost to carpet the room if carpeting costs $22 per square yard?

Solve the equation
3x-1/2y=2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Without a second equation relating x and y, we can solve 3x - 1/2y = 2 ONLY for x in terms of y or for y in terms of x:
x in terms of y: Multiply all three terms of 3x - 1/2y = 2 by 2, to eliminate the fraction: 6x - y = 4. Now add y to both sides to isolate 6x: 6x = 4 + y.
Last, divide both sides by 6 to isolate x:
x = (4 + y)/6
y in terms of x:
y = 6x - 4
If you want a numerical solution, please provide another equation in x and y and solve the resulting system.

Step-by-step explanation:
* Lets revise the rules in the right angle triangle when we draw the
perpendicular from the right angle to the hypotenuse
- In triangle ABC
# Angle B is a right angle
# The hypotenuse is AC
# BD ⊥ AC
∴ (AB)² = AD × AC
∴ (BC)² = CD × AC
∴ (BD)² = AD × CD
∴ BD × AC = AB × BC
* Lets use one of these rules to solve the problem
- y is the perpendicular from the right angle to the hypotenuse
- x is one leg of the right angle
∵ The length of the hypotenuse = 5 + 11 = 16 units
∵ The part nearest to x = 5
* Lets use the rule (AB)² = AD × AC
∴ x² = 5 × 16 = 80 ⇒ take √ for both sides
∴ x = √80 = 4√5 units

Answer:
4x + y = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in standard form is
Ax + By = C ( A is a positive integer and B, C are integers )
First obtain the equation in slope- intercept form
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (7, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (5, 12)
m = [tex]\frac{12-4}{5-7}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{-2}[/tex] = - 4, thus
y = - 4x + c ← is the partial equation of the line
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation.
Using (7, 4), then
4 = - 28 + c ⇒ c = 4 + 28 = 32
y = - 4x + 32 ← in slope- intercept form
Add 4x to both sides
4x + y = 32 ← in standard form
If two distinct lines intersect, which is NOT necessarily true? A) The lines are not parallel. B) The lines are perpendicular. C) The lines form angles at the intersection. D) The intersection of the two lines is a point.
Answer:
B is not necessarily true
Step-by-step explanation:
A) This is always true
B) This is not necessarily true
When two lines intersect, they form angles at the intersection as D says, but that does not mean that the angle will always be 90 degrees as is required for the two intersecting lines to be perpendicular
C) This is always true
D) This is always true
Option B) The lines are not perpendicular is not necessarily true.
What is the Intersection of Two lines?When two lines intersect and following are the three different possibilities:
1) They are parallel, if lines are parallel they can never intersect.
2)They cross each at an angle and the point of intersection is unique that is they intersect at only one point.
3) Two lines coincide, that is every point on line 1 is a point on line 2.
Now
In option B it is given that lines are perpendicular that is the specific case of (2) When angle is 90°.
Therefore, it is not necessarily true.

Note that -12 factors into -3 * 4 or -4 * 3. Thus,

After 3 months 5004 deposited in a savings account with simple interest had earned 162.63 in interest. What was the interest rate
Answer:
13%
Step-by-step explanation:
Please use the $ sign.
The simple interest formula is i = p*r*t, where p is the principal amount, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the time in years. Here, t = 1/4 year; r is unknown, p is $5004 and i is $162.63.
Writing this out with the given info, we get:
$162.63 = $5004*r*(1/4).
We can solve this for r by multiplying both sides by 4/$5004:
(4/$5004)($162.63) = (4/$5004)($5004)*r*(1/4) = r
Evaluating r, we get (4)($162.63)/$5004 = 0.13
The interest rate, r, is 0.13, or 13%.

A bag contains 2 white marbles and 7 purple marbles. Two marbles are drawn at random. One marble is drawn and not replaced. Then a second marble is drawn.
a. What is the probability of selecting a purple marble and then a white marble?
b. What is the probability of selecting two white marbles?
c. Is there a greater chance of selecting two white marbles in a row or two purple marbles in a row? Show your work
Hey there!
If we have two white marbles and seven purple marbles, our first probability is out of nine.
First of all, we have the probability of selecting a purple marble, 7/9.
Now, if we do not replace it, there are only eight marbles left. Therefore, getting a white marble is 2/8, or 1/4.
We multiply these probabilities together to get our answer to a.
7/9(1/4)= 7/36
a. 7/36
Now, let's do b. We have 2/9, and then 1/8, giving us 1/36.
b. 1/36
Now, let's calculate selecting two purple to help us with C.
We have 7/9, and then 6/8, or 3/4.
7/9(3/4)= 7/12
Since there is a majority of purple marbles, there is a C) greater probability of selecting two purple marbles in a row.

A. 43.8
B. 14.9
C. 29.8

Find the circumference:
Circumference = 2 x PI x radius
Circumference = 2 x 3.14 x 19 = 119.32
Divide by 4: 119.32 / 4 = 29.83 rounded to 29.8
The answer is C.
Answer:
C. 29.8 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of complete hula hoop(L)= circumference of hoop
=>[tex]L=2\pi r[/tex]
where radius, r= 19 inches
Therefore length of arc(l) subtending 1/4 of the hoop is
=>[tex]l=\frac{1}{4}\times L=\frac{1}{4}\times2\pi r=\frac{\pi r}{2}[/tex]
=>[tex]l=\frac{\pi \times 19}{2}inches=29.8 inches[/tex]
Thus the length of the arc subtending 1/4 of the hoop is 29.8 inches

HOW MANY TRIANGLES CAN BE CONSTRUCTED WITH THE FOLLOWING MEASURES?
AB = 7.6 cm, AC = 5.4 cm, and m/_ABC = 50°.
Answer:
No triangle can be constructed with given measures.

Refer the following figure.
AB = c = 7.6 cm
AC = b = 5.4 cm
∠ABC = B = 50°
Sine rule is given by [tex]\frac{a}{sinA}=\frac{b}{sinB}=\frac{c}{sinC}[/tex]

EXPLANATION
The quadratic equation is:
[tex] {y}^{2} - 6y - 12 = 0[/tex]
Group variable terms:
[tex] {y}^{2} - 6y = 12[/tex]
Add the square of half, the coefficient of y to both sides.
[tex] {y}^{2} - 6y + ( - 3) ^{2} = 12 + ( - 3) ^{2} [/tex]
[tex] {y}^{2} - 6y + 9= 12 + 9[/tex]
The LHS us now a perfect square trinomial:
[tex]{(y - 3)}^{2}= 21[/tex]
Take square root:
[tex]y - 3 = \pm \sqrt{21} [/tex]
[tex]y = 3 \pm \sqrt{21} [/tex]
The first choice is correct.
3±√21. The equation [tex]y^{2}-6y-12=0[/tex] has two possible solutions 3+√21 y 3-√21.
If we have a general quadratic equation [tex]ay^{2} +by+c=0[/tex] we can solves the equation by completing the square. First, we divide the quadratic equation by a, we obtain [tex]y^{2} +\frac{b}{a} y+\frac{c}{a} =0[/tex].
For this problem, we have [tex]y^{2}-6y-12=0[/tex]
We can skipped division in this example since the coefficient of [tex]x^{2}[/tex] is 1.
Move the term c to the right side of the equation
[tex]y^{2}-6y=12[/tex]
Completing the square on the left side of the equation and balance this by adding the same number to the right side of the equation, with b = -6.
[tex](\frac{b}{2})^{2} =(\frac{-6}{2})^{2}=(-3)^{2} =9[/tex]
[tex]y^{2}-6y+9=12+9[/tex]

Take the square root on both sides of the equation:
y - 3 = ±√21
Add 3 from both sides:

Step-by-step explanation:
let x be the amount tank can hold, then
[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] x + 2 = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x
Multiply through by 6
2x + 12 = 3x ( subtract 2x from both sides )
12 = x
The tank can hold 12 gallons
Greg's gas tank can hold 12 gallons of gas. We know this because when Greg's tank is 1/3 full and he buys 2 gallons of gas it becomes 1/2 full. The difference between 1/2 and 1/3 of a tank, or 1/6 of the tank, is equal to 2 gallons.
Explanation:
The subject of this question is mathematics, specifically within the scope of fractions and simple algebra. The question tells us that when Greg's gas tank is 1/3 full and he adds 2 gallons, the tank becomes 1/2 full. This tells us that the difference between 1/2 and 1/3 of the tank's capacity is equal to 2 gallons. In mathematical terms, this can be represented as 1/2 - 1/3 = 2/6 - 2/6 = 1/6. Therefore, 1/6 of Greg's gas tank equals 2 gallons. If 1/6 of the tank equals 2 gallons, the entire tank (or 6/6) would hold 12 gallons of gasoline.
