Question

Yung is roping in an area to play soccer in her backyard. The eld needs to be 30 feet by 15 feet. How much rope will she need?

Answer 1

The measurements given 30 feet by 15 feet should tell you that the shape of the area is a rectangle.

In this case, find the perimeter to get the total length of rope she need.

Perimeter of a rectangle,P = 2(l+w) where l is length =30 feet and w is width , 15 feet and P is perimeter.

P= 2(l+w)

P =2(30+15)

P=2(45)

P=90 feet.

The rope she will need is 90 feet. Answer.
