You are purchasing carpeting for an office building. the space to be carpeted is 30 feet by 50 feet. company a charges $2.99 per square foot plus a $200 installation charge. company b charges $19.99 per square yard plus a $500 installation charge. what is the best deal?

Total area is 30 by 50 feet=1500 ft^2
So per square foot charges are 2.99$ and 200 additional
1500×2.99+200=4685$

And another charging 19.99$ per square yard
1 yard = 3feet
30 feet=10 yard
50 feet=50/3 yard
Area=50/3×10=500/3=166.66yards^2
So they will charge 166.66×19.99=3331.66+500= 3831.66$

So comapny B is cheaper and best deal
