You are remodeling a bedroom for a client. Your job will include installing new flooring and painting the walls.
Part A
New Flooring– The bedroom floor is in the shape of a rectangle. It is 15 feet long and 12 feet wide. Your client has requested that you install either oak flooring or maple flooring.
The oak flooring costs $6.75 per square foot for materials
The maple flooring costs $8.00 per square foot for materials
The cost you charge for labor will be the same for either flooring option. How much money will your client save if you install oak flooring instead of maple flooring? Explain with calculations or words.

Paint the Walls––The height of the bedroom is 9 feet. You will paint two walls that are 15 feet wide, and you will paint two walls that are 12 feet wide. Your client likes two colors, Sky Blue and Morning Sunrise. Both colors are only available in 1-gallon cans.
Sky Blue: The regular price of a 1-gallon can is $24, but it is on sale for 15% off the regular price. This paint requires 2 coats.
Morning Sunrise: The price of a 1-gallon can is $30. This type of paint only requires 1 coat.
Each gallon of paint will cover an area of about 350 square feet. Your client says they want the cheapest of the two colors that will fully cover the four walls of his bedroom. Which paint color should you use? Explain.
