6. The rent charged for space in an office building is a linear relationship to the size of the space rented. At Roosevelt Office Rentals, $700 in rent is charged for 500 square feet of space and
$1150 in rent is charged for 900 square feet of space. Write a linear function that models rent at
Roosevelt Office Rentals.

OK, so 17 feet is 17x12= 204+8= 212 inches is the length

And 11 feet is 11x12= 132+8= 140 inches is the width.

The area of a rectangle is LxW= 212x140= 29,680 square inches.

Now, we are talking about SQUARED numbers, right? So, 1 foot = 12 inches and 1 square foot = 12^2=144 inches.

We said the room is 29,680 square inches, and 29,680/144= 206.11 and we round off to the nearest foot = 206 square feet.

And the cost?: 206x2.89= $595.34
