Answer:

the side length is 30 feet

Explanation:

we are given cost equation as


C=(n^2)/(5)+175

where

C is the cost in dollars

n is a side length in feet

we are given

cost is $355

so, C=355

we can set C=355

and then we can solve for n


355=(n^2)/(5)+175

we can subtract both sides by 175


355-175=(n^2)/(5)+175-175


(n^2)/(5)=180

Multiply both sides by 5


5* (n^2)/(5)=5* 180


n^2=900

now, we can take sqrt both sides


n=√(900)


n=30

So,

the side length is 30 feet
