Answer:
she has enough wood to make the border
Step-by-step explanation:
Two of the sides of the triangular garden = 16.4 feet
The other side of the triangular garden = 4 1/2 feet
= 4.5 feet
Total feet Sandy has = 38 feet
Does she have enough wood to make the border ?
Border of the triangular garden is the perimeter of the garden
Perimeter of a triangle = side A + side B + side C
= 16.4 feet + 16.4 feet + 4.5 feet
= 37.3 feet
Perimeter of a triangle = 37.3 feet
Lenth of wood remaining = Total length of wood - length used for border
= 38 feet - 37.3 feet
= 0.7 feet
Therefore, she has enough wood to make the border
