Answer 1

Answer:

Option 3 - 9 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Ariel's garden is planted in the shape of a square and has an area of 81 square feet. If she plans to put a fence around the perimeter of the garden.

To find : How much fencing will she need?

Solution :

The area of the garden square is 81 square feet.

The formula of area of square is $A=a^2$

$81=a^2$

$a=\sqrt{81}$

$a=9$

The side of the square is 9 feet.

The fence around the perimeter of the garden is

$P=4a\\P=4(9)\\P=36$

So, The fence around the perimeter of the garden is 36 feet.

Therefore, Option 3 is correct.

Answer 2

9x9=81
so there is 9 on 2 sides, which is 18 when it gets added together. DONT FORGET ABOUT THE OTHER 2 SIDES!! you have four sides of the square so 9x4=36. I believe the answer is actually 36
