1) the boateng family has a sickening house whose layout is shown
above. they would like to renovate just bedrooms #2 and 3. because you
are a contractor, you receive 20% off from home depot whenever you
make any purchases. if home depot sells your client's ideal wool carpet
for $8.99 per square foot, how much will it cost to carpet both
bedrooms? (keep in mind that 10'8" would be written as a decimal
approximation of 10.67 ft. think about why this is.)
a) how many total square feet of carpeting will you need?

Lmani's Percent change is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

First calculate Lmani's percentage increase:

Initial Rent: 560

New Rent: 600

Using percentage change formula:

Percent Change =

Percent Change =

= 0.066

or 6.66 percent

Now let's calculate Ariana's percentage increase:

Initial Rent: 825

New Rent: 875

Using percentage change formula:

Percent Change =

Percent Change =

= 0.606

or 6.06 percent

Lmani's rent percentage increase is greater. Althought the difference between Arinana rent is greater i.e 50 as compared to Lmani's rent increase which is 40. But Lamani's intial rent is much smaller than Ariana therefore a change of $40 results in 6.66% change in Lmani's case as compared to a chnage of $50 resulting gin 6.06% change
