Respuesta :

8 * 8 = 64 
64 * 23 = 1472
64 * 4 = 256
1472 + 256 = $1728
Total: $1728

Answer:

Mr. and Mrs. Gomez will pay $1728 in total.

The carpet is ​$23 per square yard and padding and installation is another ​$4 per square yard.

This makes a total charge of $27 per square yard.

Hence, total money needed will be = [tex]64\times27=1728[/tex] dollars

Therefore, Mr. and Mrs. Gomez will pay $1728 in total.
