Mr Rodriguez has a vegetable garden that borders his house he wants to put a fence around here that cost $7 per yard the materials evaluate 7 L + 2W where is the length and W is the width of his garden find the cost for his garden and the link of 5 yards and a width of 2 yards

Answer 1

To find the cost of the fence around Mr. Rodriguez's vegetable garden, we first need to determine the perimeter of the garden using the given dimensions. The formula for the perimeter $P$ of a rectangle is:

$$P=2L+2W$$

Where $L$ is the length and $W$ is the width.

Given:

• Length $L=5$ yards
• Width $W=2$ yards

Substituting these values into the formula for perimeter:

$$P=2(5)+2(2)=10+4=14\text{ yards}$$

Next, we calculate the cost of the fencing. The cost is given at $7 per yard. Therefore, the total cost $C$ can be calculated using the formula:

$$C=\text{Cost per yard}\times \text{Perimeter}$$

Substituting in the values:

$$C=7\times 14=98$$

Thus, the cost for the fence around Mr. Rodriguez's garden is $98.
