PHP Object-Oriented PHP Basics Building the Recipe Static

A bit stuck on this OOP Basics question. Any help?

The question asks for the instantation of a $room object that has two methods (getName and getDimensions). Does that mean we need to create a room class with these methods? I've got so far with the coding as per the attached, but I'm not sure I'm going the right way.

index.php
<?php

class Render {

  public static function displayDimensions($size){

    $length = $size[0];
    $width = $size[1];

    return $length . " x " . $width;

  }

  public static function detailsRoom($room) {

    return 

  }

}

class Room {

  private $name;
  private $Dimensions;

  public  function getName {
    {    
    return $this->name;  
    }

  public function getDimensions {
    {    
    return $this->Dimensions; 
    } 

  }

?>

Ah no worries, I solved it.....I think...

<?php

class Render {

public static function displayDimensions($size){

$length = $size[0];
$width = $size[1];

return $length . " x " . $width;

}

public static function detailsRoom($room) {

 return $room->getName() . " Dimensions: " . self::displayDimensions($room->getDimensions());

}

}

class Room {

private $name = "Kitchen"; private $Dimensions = array(12, 14);

public function getName { {
return $this->name;
}

public function getDimensions { {
return $this->Dimensions; }

}

?>
