Answer:
C = (36/3)* $24
C = $288
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to write an equation for cost c of the section of fence needed for the garden and the solve for the value c.
C is already assigned as the cost of the sections she needs for her garden.
We were made to understand that the perimeter of the garden is 36 feet, with a 3 feet each section. Now, what we need to do is to know the number of sections that we have. Since, each section is 3 feet, and the total perimeter is 36 feet, this means that the total number of sections needed would be 36/3. Each of the section as we were told costs $24, so we can then proceed to calculate the value of C from there.
C = (36/3)* $24
This is the equation that gives the cost. The actual value of the cost is thus:
C = 12 * 24 = $288
The total cost of the sections if the Fence is $288
