what is the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube

1 answer:

3 0

Let the least possible value of the smallest of 99 cosecutive integers be x and let the number whose cube is the sum be p, then

$\frac{99}{2} (2x+98)=p^3 \\ \\ 99x+4,851=p^3\\ \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{p^3-4,851}{99}$

By substitution, we have that $p=33$ and $x=314$ .

Therefore, <span>the least possible value of the smallest of 99 consecutive positive integers whose sum is a perfect cube is 314.</span>

Answer:

Expected value would be $ 0.896

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The price of the lottery ticket = $44800000,

Also, the probability of winning the grand prize = .000000020,

Thus, the expected value of the lottery ticket = value of the lottery ticket × probability of getting the lottery ticket

= 44800000 × .000000020

= $0.896

Note : value of lottery ticket = prize amount - cost of each ticket,

Here the cost price of a ticket is not given,

That's why we did not consider it.

A rectangle and a square have the same perimeter. the rectangle is of length 6cm and has an area of 48cm², find the length of th

EleoNora [17]

<em>The length of the square that has the same perimeter as the rectangle is of length 6cm and area of 48cm² is 7cm</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Let's call:

$A_{s}:Area \ of \ square \\ \\ A_{r}:Area \ of \ rectangle \\ \\ P_{s}:Perimeter \ of \ square \\ \\ P_{r}:Perimeter \ of \ rectangle$

From the question, we know that:

<em>A rectangle and a square have the same perimeter.</em>

So:

$P_{s}=P_{r}$

Moreover:

<em>The rectangle is of length 6cm and has an area of 48cm²</em>

Accordingly:

$For \ Rectangle: \\ \\ L:Length \\ W:Width \\ \\ A_{r}=L\times W \\ \\ 48=6W \\ \\ W=8$

Also:

$A_{s}=s^2 \\ \\ S:Side \ of \ square$

From the statement of perimeters:

$P_{s}=P_{r} \\ \\ \\ But: \\ \\ P_{s}=4s \\ \\ P_{r}=2W+2L \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ 4s=2W+2L \\ \\ \\ But: \ W=8 \ and \ L=6 \\ \\ 4s=2(8)+2(6) \\ \\ 4s=16+12 \\ \\ 4s=28 \\ \\ \boxed{s=7cm}$

Finally, <em>the length of the square that has the same perimeter as the rectangle is of length 6cm and area of 48cm² is 7cm</em>
