Answer:

  • lower boundary: 788 cm
  • upper boundary: 792 cm

Explanation:

You want the boundary values on the perimeter of a garden measured at 252 by 143 cm.

Perimeter

Each measurement is given to the nearest cm, so may have an error of ±0.5 cm. The perimeter is the sum of the measurements of the sides, so is ...

P = 2(L +W)

P = 2((252 ±0.5) +(143 ±0.5)) = 2(395 ±1.0) = 790 ±2.0

The boundary values on the perimeter length are 788 cm and 792 cm.
