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

Fone the slope of a line that is perpendicular x = -12

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

m [slope] = 1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

If a line is perpendicular (90 degrees, forms a right angle) to another, the slope of the line must be an opposite reciprocal of the other. The opposite reciprocal of m is -1/m.

An opposite reciprocal is created by flipping the numerator and denominator, and making it negative.

Therefore, if m is -12 it's opposite reciprocal is -1/-12 = 1/12.
