Question

a fencing company charges $22 per foot to install a wood fence how much will it cost to install a wood fence around a rectangular pool area that is 20 feet wide and 38 feet long

Answer 1

We need to first find the perimeter, so 2(20+38) = 116 feet

Next we multiply 116 by 22 to get $2552

Answer 2

Cost to fence the rectangular pool = $2552

Explanation:

To find the cost to fence the rectangular pool, we need to find the perimeter of the rectangular pool.

Given: length = 38 feet and wide = 20 feet

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(length + width)

Now plug in the given values in the above formula, we get

Perimeter of the rectangle pool = 2 (38 + 20)

= 2(58)

= 116 feet

A fencing company charges $22 per foot to install a wood fence.

To fence 116 feet, we need to multiply $22 and 116.

Cost to fence the rectangular pool = $22*116 = $2552.
