Respuesta :

Answer:

Jason need to trim is 65 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

The room is 14 feet wide and 20 feet long

so, length is 20 feet

[tex]L=20[/tex]

width is 14 feet

so, [tex]W=14[/tex]

now, we can find perimeter

P=2L+2W

[tex]P=2\times 20+2\times 14[/tex]

[tex]P=68[/tex]

There is a door opening that is 3 feet wide

So, Jason need to trim

=68-3 feet

=65 feet
