Which of these two prices would be best for Darnell to estimate the total cost of new hardwood flooring in the three bedrooms?

Answer 1

Answer:

Look below for answer! Have a great day and please mark me brainliest!

Step-by-step explanation:

Bedroom 1: 22x15=330

330x7.25=2392.5

Bedroom 2: 15x12=180

180x7.25=1305

Bedroom 3: 13x12=156

156x7.25=1131

2392.5+1305+1131= 4828.5

Bedroom 1:  22x15=330

330x6.75=2227.5

Bedroom 2: 15x12=180

180x6.75=1215

Bedroom 3: 13x12=156

156x6.75=1053

2227.5+1215+1053+100= 4595.5

Therefore, 6.75 per square foot plus a $100 fixed installation fee would be the cheapest.
