a.

Determine the volume of the rectangular room.

V=lwhWrite the formula for the volumeV=LWHSubstitute the values\begin{align*} V &= lwh && \text{Write the formula for the volume}\\ V &= LWH && \text{Substitute the values} \end{align*}

Volume is LWH cubic feet.

b.

Determine the expression for the cost of carpeting the floor.

=72×AWrite an expression=72×(lw)Write the formula area=72×LWSubstitute the values=72LWMultiply\begin{align*} &= 72 \times A && \text{Write an expression} \\ &= 72 \times (lw) && \text{Write the formula area}\\ &= 72 \times LW && \text{Substitute the values}\\ &= 72LW && \text{Multiply} \end{align*}
