Answer:

3 mi of fencing would be required to enclose this field.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we are finding the perimeter of a field with given length and width. We apply the perimeter formula P = 2L + 2W. Substituting the given dimensions, we get:

P = 2(1 mi) + 2(0.5 mi), or

P = 2 mi + 1 mi = 3 mi

3 mi of fencing would be required to enclose this field.

Answer:

15840 feet of fencing = Perimeter = 15840ft

However, if fencing is 6ft or 10ft we need to divide by the length of each fence for panels.

See bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

6ft fencing = 5280/6 = 880 fences one length

880 x 2 = 1760 6ft fences 2 sides

0.5 x 1760 = 880

1760+ 880 = 2640 fences each 6ft

Total feet of fence = 2640 x 6 =15840 feet of fencing

The ribbon was 3 1/4 inches wide and had an area of 19 1/2 square inches. What is the length of the ribbon? Please Help Will Giv

miv72 [106K]

Hello!

The formula for finding area is l × w

If the area is 19 ½ inches and it was 3 ¼ inches wide, then the length will be 19 ½ ÷ 3 ¼ (Area ÷ Width)

$19 \frac{1}{2} \div 3 \frac{1}{4}$

Change both to improper fraction

$19 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{39}{2}$

$3 \frac{1}{4} = \frac{13}{4}$

$\frac{39}{2} \div \frac{13}{4}$

Keep 39/2
Change ÷ to ×
Flip 13/4 = 4/13

$\frac{39}{2} \times \frac{4}{13} = \frac{156}{26} = 6$

$\framebox {The length of the ribbon is 6 inches}$

The sum of three consecutive integers is greater than 66. What is the smallest possible product of the largest and smallest of t

AysviL [449]

Answer:

528

Step-by-step explanation:

So naturally at first sight for this question we would think -->

Oh 3 consecutive integers = 66 --> 66/3 = 22 (n-1), (n+1) so --> 21, 22, and 23.

But no. At second look it is the sum of 3 consecutive integers is greater than 66. So we find the next possible pair since it says smallest possible product.

We get the set (22, 23, 24). => Multiply the least and greatest integers together respectively 22 and 24 which amounts to => 528

And thus, we have out answer of 528

Hope this helps!
