$ 1347.5 will George will pay for carpeting .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Area of the rectangle = Length × Breadth

Area of a square = a²

Where a is the side of the square .

As given

George wants to put carpeting in a rectangular living room and a square bedroom.

The length and width of the living room is 12 feet by 18 feet one side of the square bedroom is 13 feet .

Area of the living room = 12 × 18

                                      = 216 ft ²

Area of the bedroom =  13²

                                   = 169 ft ²

Total area = Area of the living room + Area of the bedroom

                =  216 + 169

                = 385 ft ²

As given

it will cost 3.50$ per foot to carpet the rooms .

First part

Let us assume that the total amount george will pay for carpeting be x .

Than

x = Total are of the living room and bedroom × cost of per foot carpeting .

x = 385 × 3.50

Second part

x = Total are of the living room and bedroom × cost of per foot carpeting .

x = 385 × 3.50

x = $ 1347.5

Therefore the $ 1347.5 will George will pay for carpeting .
