1. Find the approximate area of the garden bed shown above for values of to given in the table (all values in metres). Each strip is 5 metres wide. Answer to 1 decimal place. (6, U) Strip Strip Length (m) 0.2 10.1 12.2 8.6 5.0 7.9 12.4 2.1 If the garden’s total area is the sum of each individual strip, then we need to add them together. 0.2 + 10.1 + 12.2 + 8.6 + 5.0 + 7.9 + 12.4 + 2.1 = 58.5, and we list this in metres, so 58.5 metres. 2. Find the cost of mulching the garden bed, to the nearest hundred dollars, if mulch costs $6.25/m2 (2, F)
