Answer:
312
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to determine the width
A = l*w
6.2 * 10 ^3 = 1.55 * 10 ^2 * w
Divide each side by 1.55 * 10 ^2
6.2 ^ 10 ^3 /1.55 * 10 ^2 = 1.55 * 10 ^2 * w / 1.55 * 10 ^2
Changing from scientific notation to standard
6200/155 = w
40 = w
Then we need to determine the perimeter
P = 2(l+w)
P = 2( 155+40)
P =2( 195)
P = 390
Now multiply by the price
390 *.80
