Cynthia wants to buy a rug for a room that is 25 ft wide and 34 ft long. She wants to leave a uniform strip of floor around the rug. She can afford to buy 630 square feet of carpeting. What dimensions should the rug have?
Answered by oobleck
so, if the rug has width w, to get the maximum 630 ft^2 of carpeting,
(25-2w)(34-2w) = 630
w = 2
So, the carpet is 2 ft wide.
Now, how long is it?
