The diagram below shows the floor plan for a one-story home, including measurements. If construction costs $95 per square foot, find the cost of building the home If carpet costs $17.95 per square yard and is available in whole square yards only, find the cost of carpeting the three bedroom floors. If ceramic tile costs $26.95 per square yard and is available in whole square yards only, find the cost of installing ceramic tile on the kitchen and dining room floors. A water reservoir is shaped like a rectangular solid with a base that is 50 yards by 30 yards, and a vertical height of 20 yards. At the start of a three-month period of no rain, the reservoir was completely full. At the end of this period the height of the water was down to 6 yards. How much water (in gallons) was used in the three-month period? (1 cubic foot = 7.48052 gallons)

Explanation / Answer

a ) Area of rectangle = length x breadth

   Given that

length of home = 54 ft

   breadth of home = 30 ft

Area of home = 54 ft x30 ft

   = 1620 square foot

Given that

Cost of constructing a home = $ 95 per square foot

Hence,

Cost of constructing a rectangular home = 1620 square foot x $ 95 / square foot

= $153900

b ) Master bed room :

Given that

length of master bedroom = 14 ft

   breadth of bedroom = 14 ft

Area of master bedroom = 14 ft x 14 ft

   = 196 square foot

Given that

Cost of carpeting bedroom = $ 17.95 per square yard

Hence,

1 square foot = 0.111 square yard

area of master bedroom = 196 square foot

=196 x 0.111 square yard

= 21.756 square yard

Hence,

Cost of carpeting master bed room = 21.756 square yard

x $17.95 / square yard

= $ 390.52

Bed room 2 :

Given that

length of master bedroom 2 = 11 ft

   breadth of bedroom 2 = 12 ft

Area of bedroom 2 = 11 ft x 12 ft

   = 132 square foot

Given that

Cost of carpeting bedroom 2 = $ 17.95 per square yard

Hence,

1 square foot = 0.111 square yard

area of bedroom 2 = 132 square foot

=132 x 0.111 square yard

= 14.652 square yard

Hence,

Cost of carpeting bed room 2 = 14.652 square yard x $17.95 / square yard

= $ 263

Bed room 3:

Given that

length of master bedroom 3 = 12 ft

   breadth of bedroom 3 = 11 ft

Area of bedroom 3= 12ft x 11 ft

   = 132 square foot

Given that

Cost of carpeting bedroom 3 = $ 17.95 per square yard

Hence,

1 square foot = 0.111 square yard

area of bedroom 3 = 132 square foot

=132 x 0.111 square yard

= 14.652 square yard

Hence,

Cost of carpeting the bedroom 3 = 14.652 square yard x $17.95 / square yard

= $ 263

Therefore,

Cost of carpeting the 3 bedroom floors = $ 390.52 + $ 263 + $ 263 = $ 916.52

c ) Kitchen:

Given that

length of kitchen = 12 ft

   breadth of kitchen = 14 ft

Area of kitchen = 12 ft x 14 ft

   = 168 square foot

Given that

Cost of installing ceramic tile = $ 26.95 per square yard

Hence,

1 square foot = 0.111 square yard

area of kitchen = 168 square foot

=168 x 0.111 square yard

= 18.648 square yard

Hence,

Cost of installing ceramic tile for kitchen = 18.648 square yard x $26.95 / square yard

= $ 502.56

Dining room

Given that

length of dining room = 10 ft

   breadth of dining room = 14 ft

Area of dining room = 10ft x 14 ft

   = 140 square foot

Given that

Cost of installing ceramic tile = $ 26.95per square yard

Hence,

1 square foot = 0.111 square yard

area of dining room = 140 square foot

=140 x 0.111 square yard

= 15.54 square yard

Hence,

Cost of installing ceramic tile for dining room = 15.54 square yard x $26.95 / square yard

= $ 418.8

Hence,

cost of installing ceramic tile on kitchen and dining room = $ 502.56 + $ 418.8

= $ 921.36
