Car vs. Carpet
Think about driving a car across the carpet..... The force is 1500 NT. (Newtons) , But the carpet has 1500 NT. as well.
Are you driving (moving around) or are you just sitting there?
Hint: Please Note that your house would have to be HUGE to do that. And please do not try this at home.

If u are studying Force and Motion u will have no problem answering this question.... The force is 1500NT. and the friction of the carpet is equal to the force being applied to the car 1500NT. So u would subtract=0 NT. left so that would mean that the car would not move unless the force being applied to the car is increased to 1600+
