ID: A 3. ANS: a. area, square feet b. area, square yards (or square feet) c. perimeter, feet d. The room is 3 yards (9 feet) by 4 yards (12 feet), so 3 × 4 = 12 square yards of carpet are needed (108 square feet is also correct). e. (9 + 12) × 2 = 42 feet of baseboard (Some students may argue for less than 42 feet-say, 39 feet-because of the door opening not needing baseboard. This is a reasonable answer as well.) f. Possible answer: Two of the walls need 12 × 8 = 96 square feet of paint, two of the walls need 9 ×8 = 72 square feet of paint, and the ceiling needs 12 × 9 = 108 square feet of paint, so there is (96 ×2) + (72 ×2) + 108 = 444 square feet to cover. This would require 444 ÷ 350 = about 1.27 gallons of paint, so you would need 1 1 or 2 gallons (if the paint came only in full gallons). 2 PTS: 1 DIF: L2 REF: Covering and Surrounding | Question Bank OBJ: Investigation 1: Designing Bumper Cars NAT: NAEP M1h| NAEP M2b| NAEP M2f TOP: Problem 1.2 Finding Area and Perimeter of Rectangles KEY: dimension | area of a rectangle | area | perimeter 4.
