Problema Solution

Mel plans to fence his yard for his new puppy. The yard is a 59 ft by 96 ft rectangle. Fencing costs $5

per 10 ft section. What is the cost of the fence?

Answer provided by our tutors

yard is a 59x96 rectangle. 

So, total perimeter = 2(59+96) = 310.

 

Cost is $5 for 10 ft

Hence total cost = 310*5/10 = 31*5 = 155.

So, $155 is total cost.
