A homeowner is going to build the raised bed garden shown in the plan, against an existing garden wall. The homeowner will build the new wall by stacking concrete blocks without mortar, and then fill in the walled space with garden soil. The concrete blocks have dimensions 8 inches x 8 inches x 16 inches. The wall will be capped by capstones that have dimensions 8 inches x 2 inches x 16 inches. Concrete blocks cost $1.50 each, capstones cost $1.00 each, and garden soil costs $36 per cubic yard. The homeowner will do all the work and will buy materials. How much will they cost?
