Answer:

$128

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We need to find how much 1 yard of material cost.

If needed, use a calculator*

120/75=1.6

2. Now we need to know how much 15 yards of material cost.

1.6 times 15=24

3. The buyer ordered an additional 90 yards. If we know how much 75 yards cost, and 15 yards, all you have to do is...

120+24=144

90 yards=$144

4. The additional cost is $144

(Note: the total cost would be $264 (120+144=264))

Answer:

$16\sqrt{17}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is two times width plus two times length:

$2\sqrt{17} + 2\cdot 7\sqrt{17} = 2\sqrt{17} + 14\sqrt{17} = 16\sqrt{17}$

There is no way to simplify further.
