Answer:
Option B. 44 square feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure shows a carted room. We have to find the area of the room which is carpeted.
The given room consist of two rectangles.
Larger rectangle with the sides = 8x (7 - 4 ) feet = 8 × 3 feet and smaller rectangle with the sides = 5 × 4 feet
Area of larger rectangle = 8 × 3 = 24 feet²
Area of smaller rectangle = 5 × 4 = 20 feet²
Total area of the room = 24 + 20 = 44 feet²
Option B. 44 square feet is the answer.
