Answer:

The fence will cost $330.09

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to calculate the perimeter of the semicircle for that we use the following formula:

d = diameter = 29ft

s = perimeter of semicircle

π = 3.14

s = d * 1/2 * π

we replace the values that ​​we know

s = 29ft * 1/2 * 3.14

s = 45.53ft

Now we multiply the number of feet by the price of 1 foot of fence

45.53 * $7.25 = 330.0925

Rounding to the nearest hundredth

$330.0925 = $330.09
