The cost of fertilizing a lawn is $0.25 per square foot. find the cost to fertilize the triangular lawn whose base is left parenthesis 14 plus startroot 17 endroot right parenthesis feet and altitude is startroot 68 endroot feet.

To Calculate the cost of The cost of fertilizing, we need to Calculate first the Area of the Triangle.

the Area of the Triangle = 1/2 x base x altitude = 1/2 x (14+√17) x 68 = 524.08 square foot

The cost of fertilizing = the cost of the square foot x the total area = 0.25x524.08 = 131 $
