To find the cost for the garden, we need to evaluate the expression 7(l + 2w) where l is the length and w is the width of the garden.

Given that the length is 5 yards and the width is 2 yards, we can plug these values into the expression:

7(5 + 2(2))
= 7(5 + 4)
= 7(9)
= 63

Therefore, the cost for a garden that has a length of 5 yards and a width of 2 yards is $63.

So, the correct answer is $63.

Apologies for the mistake. Let's correct the calculation.

Given that the length is 5 yards and the width is 2 yards, we can plug these values into the expression:

7(l + 2w)
= 7(5 + 2(2))
= 7(5 + 4)
= 7(9)
= 63

Therefore, the cost for a garden that has a length of 5 yards and a width of 2 yards is $63.

So, the correct answer is $63.
