Answer:

[tex]A=160ft^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of yard [tex]l=37ft[/tex]

Width of yard [tex]w=43ft[/tex]

Walk [tex]l_w=2ft[/tex]

Generally the perameter of the fence P is mathematically given by

[tex]P=l+w[/tex]

[tex]P=37+43[/tex]

[tex]P=80[/tex]

Generally the equation for area of walk is mathematically given by

[tex]A=P*l_w[/tex]

[tex]A=80*2[/tex]

[tex]A=160 ft^2[/tex]

Therefore area of walk is

[tex]A=160ft^2[/tex]
