Question

A town is fencing a rectangular field that is 200 feet long and 150 feet wide. At $10 per foot, how much will it cost to fence the field

Answer 1

perimeter of a rectangle is

2*width + 2*length

then multiply the perimeter by the cost per foot

2*(150ft) + 2*(200ft)

300ft + 400ft

700ft

700ft * $10/ft

$7000
