Question 1138674: Painting a Bedroom
The walls and ceiling inside your bedroom need to be painted. To save money, you decide that you will paint the bedroom yourself. Use the following information to solve this problem:
• The bedroom is 17 feet long by 18 feet wide, and the ceiling is 9 feet high.
• The inside of the bedroom door will be painted the same color as the walls.
• Two coats of paint will be applied to all of the painted surfaces.
• The room has one window, measuring 3 feet, 9 inches by 4 feet, which will not be painted.
Discuss different ways to construct the room that will be painted. Are there any restrictions on where the window and door will be located? Will the overall amount of paint that is needed change based on where these are placed in the room?
