Mr. LaCosta is making a circular garden for our outdoor green space. The garden has a diameter of 11m. He has to buy plastic fencing to put around the edge. The fencing costs $5.75/m. What would be the total cost before taxes?

The total cost before taxes to fence the garden is approximately $198.71

Explanation:

The given parameters for the garden are;

The diameter of the garden, D = 11 m

The cost of the fencing, UnitC = $5.75/m

The circumference of a circle, C = π·D

Therefore, the perimeter of the garden, C = π × 11 m ≈ 34.5575 m

The total cost before taxes to fence the garden, T = C × UnitC

∴ The total cost before taxes to fence the garden, T, is given as follows;

T ≈ 34.5575 m × $5.75/m ≈ $198.71

The total cost before taxes to fence the garden, T ≈ $198.71
