Before soccer practice,Jovan warms up by jogging around a soccer field that is 100 yards by 130 yards.How many yards dose he jog if he goes around the field four times?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]1,840\ yd[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out the perimeter of a rectangular soccer field

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to

[tex]P=2(L+W)[/tex]

we have

[tex]L=130\ yd\\W=100\ yd[/tex]

substitute the values

[tex]P=2(130+100)[/tex]

[tex]P=460\ yd[/tex]

step 2

we know that

Jovan goes around the field four times

so

To find out the number of yards that he runs, multiply the perimeter by four.

[tex]460(4)=1,840\ yd[/tex]
