Answer:
41.2 feet of wallpaper
100.8 square feet of carpet
Step-by-step explanation:
The wallpaper is going to be around all the four walls of the bedroom and to know how many feet of wallpaper we know that the bedroom is:
12.6 feet long and 8 feet wide.
So two walls are 12.6 feet and two are 8 feet, so we have to add the total of feet the perimeter of the bedroom is:
12.6+12.6+8+8 = 41.2 feet of wallpaper.
With the carpet, we need to know the area of the room because it will be on the floor. The formula for the area of a rectangle is:
A=L*W
where:
A is area
L is length
W is wide
Now we will substitute the data we have in the formula:
A = 12.6 * 8
A = 100.8 square feet of carpet.
