We have a square garden of 400 square foot.
The area of a square is:
where x: side length.
In this case:
The perimeter of the square is the sum of the lengths of the sides of the square. As they are all equal, we can write:
The fencing is priced at $1.50 per foot. If we add the 7% sales tax to this price we get:
The fencing will be installed in all the perimeter (80 ft).
We can calculate the total cost by multiplying the sales price ($1.605 per foot) and the perimeter (80 ft):
Answer: the fencing will cost a total of $128.40
It's A. First of all, one of the only 2 things in math that will NEVER be negative is distances/lengths and times. You have a distance here, so because one of your 2 numbers is negative, you have to take the absolute value of the difference. -8-5 = -11, but the absolute value of that is 11. Put the numbers on a number line and count the units between -8 and +5 and there are 11 units between those 2 numbers.
Answer: should be 4.13
Step-by-step explanation: -12.4 divided by 3 is -4.13333333333 and goes on
