Answer: 122 sq. in.
Step-by-step explanation:
P = 2 (l + w)
P = 2 (34.5 + 26.5)
P = 2 x 61
P = 122 sq. in. = 0.847 sq ft = 0.0941 sq. yards
If we add $0.14 until we get $21.64, we would add it 154.572 times. To check this answer and make sure I’m right, do this equation: 0.14 x 154.572, then you would get 21.64.
The correct answer is 154.572 minutes.
