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

Answer 1

To calculate the cost of the fencing for Mr. Rogers' garden, we can use the formula given:

\[ 7l + 2W \]

where:

• \( l \) is the length of the garden,
• \( w \) is the width of the garden,
• the cost of materials is $7 per yard.

Plugging in the values for length and width:

• Length (\( l \)) = 5 yards
• Width (\( W \)) = 2 yards

Now, substituting these values into the formula:

\[ Cost = 7l + 2W = 7(5) + 2(2) \]

Calculating each term:

\[ 7(5) = 35 \] \[ 2(2) = 4 \]

Now, sum these results:

\[ Cost = 35 + 4 = 39 \]

Thus, the total cost for the fencing material is $39.
