Joey has a pool in his backyard and he wants to build a fence around the entire area joeys backyard is 12 meters wide and 14 meters long. it cists $9.00 per meter to install a wooden fence. how much eoyld it cost to pyt a eooden fence around joyes backyard?

One side of the back yard is usually the back side of the house.

But we won't worry about that ... we'll just go ahead and fence all

four sides, like you seem to have said.

Any rectangle has two sides that are the length and two sides that are the width.

So the distance around the back yard is

(14 + 14) + (12 + 12) = 52 meters.

(That's called the "perimeter" of the yard.)

If every meter of fence costs $9.00, then 52 meters of fence will cost

(52) times ($9.00) = $468. plus tax.
