When you are building a new home it is important to have an idea from the very start how much it may cost. The price varies dramatically depending on the size and the design of the property. Your task is to analyse the data from past construction works in order to estimate the contribution of different components. The table below show a part of construction costs breakdown (in thousand dollars) for three houses: the first has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the second has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, and the third has two bedrooms and one bathroom. House 4beds & 3baths 2beds & 2baths 2beds & 1baths Plumbing 14 11 8 Electricity 15 10 9 Flooring 10 7 6 (a) Find real constants Phed, Pbath, Po such that P(x, y) = Pbed ⋅ x + Pbath · y + Po equals the plumbing costs given in the table, where x is the number of bedrooms and y is the number of bathrooms. Similarly, find functions E(x, y) = ebed x + €bath · Y + Co and F(x, y) = ƒbed ·x + ƒbath · y + fo describing the costs for electricity and flooring, respectively.
