Uniform strip of carpet around rug equation.
This would leave exactly one half of the room bare.
Cynthia besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 18 ft wide and 31 ft long.
If you draw the room and make x the width of the strip of floor around the carpet the area of the carpet becomes 15 2x 12 2x which you then set equal.
If the strip of floor around the rug is uniform then the rug is also 8 feet longer than it is wide.

We now have a quadratic equation and we will first try to solve it by factoring.
The area 4 x 6 x covers 2 times that 48 sq meters.
And the other dimension of the rug is 15 2w.
Cynthia besch wants to buy a rug for a room that is 21 ft wide and 27 ft long.
The the rug is by the width of the strip of floor is.

You can put this solution on your website.
The rug should be 15 ft wide and 28 ft long.
L 15 2x.
Starting from the room removing the area of the empty strip should leave the area.
W 12 2x.
One dimension of the rug is 12 2w.
I have attached a figure that represents the situation.
Use a figure or picture if necessary to understand this.
