Question

If you choose to live alone, you must pay all your cable and utility bills. If you choose to have roommates, you can share those expenses. Keep in Mind If you are single, you can have one or two roommates. If you have roommates, you must have a separate bedroom for each person living with you. Examples: • If you live alone, you may rent a one-bedroom home. • If you have one roommate, you must rent a home with at least two bedrooms. • If you have two roommates, you must rent a home with at least three bedrooms. Directions: After locating the home you wish to rent, compute your total rent payment below. Housing Line 1: Cost of home rental If you have one roommate, divide Line 1 by 2. Enter that amount on Line 2. ⚫ If you have two roommates, divide Line 1 by 3. Enter that amount on Line 2. ⚫ If you live alone, then transfer the Line 1 amount to Line 2. Line 2: Total rent amount ​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Cost of home rental (Line 1): This is the total cost of renting the home.

2. **Total rent amount (Line 2)**:

  - If you live alone, Line 2 will be the same as Line 1.

  - If you have one roommate, you divide the cost of home rental by 2 and put that amount on Line 2.

  - If you have two roommates, you divide the cost of home rental by 3 and put that amount on Line 2.

Let's say the cost of home rental (Line 1) is $1500 per month:

- If you live alone, Line 2 will also be $1500.

- If you have one roommate, you divide $1500 by 2, which equals $750. So, Line 2 will be $750.

- If you have two roommates, you divide $1500 by 3, which equals $500. So, Line 2 will be $500.
