Answer:

C. 26 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamie's fence total length = perimeter of the polygon

Perimeter of the polygon = AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FA

AB, FA and DE can be worked accordingly as shown below:

AB = |-5 - 0| = 5 units

FA = |5 - 2| = 3 units

DE = |1 -(-2)| = 3 units

BC, CD, and EF can be calculated using the formula d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Distance between B(0, 5) and C(4, 2):

BC = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

B(0, 5) = (x_1, y_1)

C(4, 2) = (x_2, y_2)

BC = \sqrt{(4 - 0)^2 + (2 - 5)^2}

BC = \sqrt{(4)^2 + (-3)^2}

BC = \sqrt{16 + 9} = \sqrt{25}

BC = 5 units

Distance between C(4, 2) and D(1, -2)

CD = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

C(4, 2) = (x_1, y_1)

D(1, -2) = (x_2, y_2)

CD = \sqrt{(1 - 4)^2 + (-2 - 2)^2}

CD = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (-4)^2}

CD = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25}

CD = 5 units

Distance between E(-2, -2) and F(-5, 2):

EF = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Let,

E(-2, -2) = (x_1, y_1)

F(-5, 2) = (x_2, y_2)

EF = \sqrt{(-5 -(-2))^2 + (2 -(-2))^2}

EF = \sqrt{(-3)^2 + (4)^2}

EF = \sqrt{9 + 16} = \sqrt{25}

EF = 5 units

Total length of the wall in yards = 5 + 5 + 5 + 3 + 5 + 3 = 26 yards
