$500625

Step-by-step explanation:

$27 per yard. Grass seed costs $2 per square foot. How much does it cost to fence and seed the pasture?  A land for farming has a square-shaped piece of land and an isosceles triangular shaped piece of land that share a base. The square piece of land has a side length of 450 feet. The triangle has legs of 255 feet and height of 120 feet.     area shape square = 450 *450 Square Area = 202500 SQft  perimeter = 450* 4 =1800 Ft  TRIANGLE = Hypotenuse is given by formula H=B√2 but height is already given = 120 and 255 area = Height  * Base = 120 * 255 =Triangle Area = 30600 feet squared     perimeter = 255 * 3 = 765 Ft   fence perimeter is 765-255 = 510 feet   total area = 202500+ 30600= 233100 square foot = 233100* $2 = (*2) = $466200  total fence = 765+510 = 1275 feet = 1275(*$27) = $34425   Total cost =   466200+34425 = $500625
