Answer:

<h2>The slope of BC is -7/2.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Givens</h3>

ABCD is a rectangle.

AB \parallel CD

BC \parallel AD.

m_{AB} =\frac{2}{7}

We know that AB \perp BC and CD \perp AD, by definition of rectangle.

Additionally, m_{AB} \times m_{BC}=-1, by condition of perpendicularity.

Replacing, we have

\frac{2}{7}  \times m_{BC}=-1\\ m_{BC}=-\frac{7}{2}

Therefore, the slope of BC is -7/2.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

1246 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the yard of fencing she needs for he cows, we simply need to find the perimeter of the rectangular area.

The area is 200 yards by 423 yards.

The perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a rectangle and it is given by:

P = 2(L + B)

P = 2(200 + 423) = 2(623)

P = 1246 yards.

She needs 1246 yards of fencing.

Answer:

Proof

Step-by-step explanation:

PROOF can be said to be logical mathematical argument in which every statement of fact is supported by a reason

due to the fact mathematical proof is an inferential argument for a mathematical statement because it help to shows that the assumptions stated logically guarantee and enables the conclusion.

Therefore Proofs can be said to be an examples of exhaustive deductive reasoning because they tend to often establish logical certainty which can be differentiated from empirical arguments which inturn help to establish reasonable and effectively expectation as well as employ logic expressed in mathematical symbols which is why proofs are often written in terms of rigorous informal logic
