A local park is building a sand volleyball court 40 feet long and 15 feet wide. They are paying $3000 to have the sand put into
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

The court cost $5 per square foot of sand

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the area of the volleyball court

The area of the rectangular court is equal to

A=LW

we have

L=40\ ft

W=15\ ft

substitute

A=(40)(15)=600\ ft^{2}

step 2

Divide the total cost to have the sand put into the court by the area of the court

so

\frac{3,000}{600}\frac{\$}{ft^{2}}=5\frac{\$}{ft^{2}}

therefore

The court cost $5 per square foot of sand
