$1,170

Answer 1

To calculate the cost of carpeting a room, we need to know the area of the room in square feet along with the cost per square foot.

From your question, it looks like we might be missing the information about the area of the room or carpet, as well as the dimensions if the area is not directly provided. However, if we use the choices provided and analyze the potential area:

1. The cost of 1 square foot of carpet is $20.
2. We need to divide the total cost of the carpet by the cost per square foot to find the area.

Let's check each provided cost option to see which one matches a reasonable area:

- For $1,170:
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1,170}{20} = 58.5 \text{ square feet}
\]

- For $610:
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{610}{20} = 30.5 \text{ square feet}
\]

- For $1,060:
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1,060}{20} = 53 \text{ square feet}
\]

- For $1,010:
\[
\text{Area} = \frac{1,010}{20} = 50.5 \text{ square feet}
\]

Now you can determine which of these areas makes sense based on the dimensions of the room or the carpet you had.

If you can provide the area directly or if there is additional information available about the size of the room that can be used for calculation, please share that. Otherwise, based on the options provided, I'd suggest selecting the cost based on the area you think fits the room.
