Click here to view the table of materials. The area of the patio is yd?, so the cost of concrete is $ The area of the garden is yd?, so the cost of soil is $ The total area of the deck is ft?, so the cost of wood is $1.

Answer 1

1) Area of patio = 1/2 base x height

Height = 3.1ft

base = 7 + 10 =17 ft

Area = 1/2 x 3.1 x 17

Area of patio = 26.35 square ft

1 yard = 3 ft

1 square yard = 9 square ft

so the area of the patio in yard is

26.35/9 = 2.927777778 square yard

2) Cost of concrete = $10/square yard poured 1/9 yard deep+ $60 delivery fee

for 2.9277777778 square yard it will cost 1/9($10 x 2.9277777778) + $60 =$
