Joseph wants to line his garden with a fence that cost $2.25 per foot. The length of the garden is 6 yards and the width is 2.5 yards. what is the total cost?

Sagot :

Answer:

$38.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2W + 2L

(where W is the width and L is the length)

Given:

  • width = 2.5 yd
  • length = 6 yd

⇒ perimeter = (2 x 2.5) + (2 x 6)

                     = 5 + 12

                     = 17 yd

Given:

  • cost of fence = $2.25 per foot

⇒ total cost = 17 x 2.25

                    = $38.25

  • Length=L=6yds
  • Width=B=2.5yds

Perimeter:-

  • 2(L+B)
  • 2(6+2.5)
  • 2(8.5)
  • 17yd

Toatl cost::

  • 17(2.25)
  • 34+4.25
  • 38.25$
