a rectangular pasture has a fence around the perimeter. the length of the fence is 16x^7 and the width is 48x^4. what is the area of the pasture?
To find the area of the pasture, we need to multiply the length and the width.
Area = Length * Width
Area = (16x^7) * (48x^4)
When multiplying variables with the same base, we add their exponents.
Area = 16 * 48 * (x^7 * x^4)
Area = 768 * x^(7+4)
Area = 768 * x^11
Therefore, the area of the pasture is 768x^11.
