Question 407960: A swimming pool is 7 meters wide and 18 meters long. At $15 per meter,
how much will fencing around the outside of the pool cost?
I tried to find the area of the triangle but that didn't come out with the right answer. Answer by Alan3354(69443) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It's not the area that's fenced, it's the perimeter. And it's not a triangle.
P = 2(L + W) = 2(7 + 18)
P = 50 meters
50*$15 = $750
