The perimeter is 1,000 feet. The width is 200 feet.
P = 2L + 2W
1,000 = 2L + 400
600 = 2L
300 = L
Area = L * W
A = 60,000 square feet
Take it from there.
Farmer Brown needs to fertilize his hay pasture before spring arrives. He knows that the perimeter of his pasture is 1000 feet and that the width is 200 feet. If one bag of fertilizer will cover 5000 square feet, how many bags of fertilizer does Farmer Brown need to buy? Show your work.
So like... I did math and stuff and found the length (300) bc that might help but idk what the answer is or even remotely how to find it. Help!!!!!!
