a square garden has sides that are 9 meters long. fencing costs $6.82 per meter. how much would it cost to put a fence around the garden? $

Question

Accepted Answer

# Explanation:
## Step1: Calculate the perimeter of the square garden
The perimeter of a square is $P = 4s$, where $s$ is the side length. Given $s = 9$ meters, so $P=4\times9 = 36$ meters.
## Step2: Calculate the total cost of fencing
The cost per meter is $\$6.82$. The total cost $C$ is the product of the perimeter and the cost per meter. So $C=36\times6.82$.
$$
\begin{align*}
36\times6.82&=(30 + 6)\times6.82\
&=30\times6.82+6\times6.82\
&=204.6+40.92\
&=245.52
\end{align*}
$$

# Answer:
$245.52$
