The carpet flooring will cost $4,292 (option C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to solve this problem we have to apply the formula of the area of a rectangle to obtain the area of the floor:

A = W x L

Where:

A: area

W: Width: 14.5 feet

L: Length: 16 feet

Solving:

Now that we have the area, we simply have to multiply it by the cost of a square foot of finished space ($18.50)

The carpet flooring will cost $4,292 (option C)
