Perimeter would be the sum of all the sides so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w
Perimeter is 60 yards according to your problem so: (w+4) + w + (w+4) + w = 60 yds
1.Simplify/combine like terms:
w + 4 + w + w + 4 + w =
4w + 8 =
Now it's a 2-step algebra equation
4w + 8 = 60
2.Subtract 8 on both sides
4w = 56
3.Divide both sides by 4
w = 14
For first pound it is = $2.41
For next six, = 0.41 * 6 = $2.46
Remaining = 7.99 - (2.41 + 2.46) = 7.99 - 4.87 = 3.12
Now, additional pounds = 3.12 / 0.39 = 8
Total weight = 1 + 6 + 8 = 15
In short, Your Answer would be 15 pounds
Hope this helps!
