Answer:

P = 52.5

Explanation:

P = ( L + L ) + ( W + W )

P = ( 12.25 + 12.25 ) + ( 14 + 14 )

P = 24.5 + 28

P = 52.5

Hello!

because of the way Clinton's yard is measured, it must be a rectangle.

here is the equation to find the perimeter of a rectangle:

L2 + W2 = P

12.25 * 2 = 24.5

14 * 2 = 28

24.5 + 28 = 52.5

your answer is: The perimeter of Clinton's yard is 52.5 Meters

I hope this helps, and have a nice day!
