Martin and Edward are neighbors. Martin has a rectangular backyard whose length is 12 feet and whose width is 6 feet. Edward's backyard is a square that shares a side of Martin's backyard (the width). The men decide to line each side of both yards with hedges. At the end of the gardening project, how many feet of hedges have Martin and Edward laid?

Respuesta :

Answer:

They have both laid a total of 54 feet of hedges

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we have a square bordered by a rectangle

The dimensions of the rectangle is 12 ft by 6 ft

The dimensions of the square is same all through and since it shares the width with the rectangle;

The dimensions of the square will be 6 ft by 6 ft

So since they decided to lay each side with edges,

The total hedges laid will be;

6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 12 + 12 + 6

5(6) + 2(12)

= 30 + 24 = 54 ft
