A beach volleyball court is 10 yards wide and 17 yards long. The rope used for the boundary line costs $2.00 per yard. How much would it cost to buy a new boundary line for the court?

Approach:
  • A volleyball court is shaped as a rectangle.
  • And the boundary line runs on the perimeter of the rectangle.
  • So we want the perimeter of the rectangle
Using our rectangle calculator with length = 17 and width = 10, we have:
P = 54
