a. What are the outside dimensions of the area surrounding the pool?

b. How many feet of fence will sally need?

A. 41 ft by 36 ft; 77 ft

B. 41 ft by 36 ft; 154 ft

C. 56 ft by 51 ft; 214 ft

D. 56 ft by 51 ft; 107

Answer 1

is it B

Answer 2

Dimensions are 41 feet long and 36 feet wide

Answer 3

just add 15 feet to both the width, and the length, and then find the perimeter of the fence. length will be (26 + 15 = 41), width will be (21 + 15 = 36). Then use the formula for perimeter (P = 2(l + w) ) to find the perimeter. Your answer choices should already be eliminated down to the first two.
