Answer: it will cost him $2204 to recarpet the room.

Step-by-step explanation:

The floor of the room is rectangular. The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length * width

The rectangular hotel room is 4 yards by 7 yards. It means that the area of the rectangular floor would be

Area = 4 * 7 = 28 square yard.

If the cost of the carpet $58.00 per square yard, the total that it will cost to recarpet the room would be

38 * 58.00 = $2204
