For this problem you need to find the area.
To find area, you multiply the width by the length.
You multiply 12 1/2 by 5 1/2 and you get 31 1/4
This is how you do it::

= 25/2 × 5/2

= (25 × 5) / (2 × 2)

= 125/4

= 125/4

<span>= 31 1/4

So you know that the area is 31 1/4 yards. 
In the question it asks HOW MANY FEET so we have to convert 31 1/4 yards to feet. 
1 yard= 3 feet
31 1/4 *3= </span><span>93.75
John need to buy 93.75 feet of fencing to enclose the area.

How can you find 75% of any number?
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply it by 0.75, or find 3/4 of that number. Whichever you prefer! The first one always works though the second one sometimes does but sometimes 3/4 of the number isn't that obvious.

If the coefficient of determination is a positive value, then the regression equation must have a positive slope must have a neg
Soloha48 [4]

Answer: The regression equation could have a positive or a negative slope

Explanation:

The coefficient of determination is marked as r^2. This is always positive because squaring a negative leads to a positive. Knowing something like r^2 = 0.7 does not tell us whether r itself is positive or negative, so we don't know if the regression line slope is positive or negative. We would need more info.
