The average of the other four numbers must be six because (6 + 2 ) ÷ 2 = 4
Hope this helps!

Answer:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the 6 numbers be a,b,c,d,e,f

a+b+c+d+e+f ÷6 = 4 (given)

So a+b+c+d+e+f = 6×4 = 24 ------>1

a+b÷2 =2(given)

So a+b = 4 ------->2

so from equation 1 and 2

c+d+e+f= 24 - 4 = 20

So the average of 4 numbers = 20/4 = 5

A dog owner wants to use 200 ft of fencing to enclose the greatest possible area for his dog. he wants the fenced area to be rec

Fiesta28 [93]

Perimeter (P) = 2 · Length(L) + 2 · Width (W) → P = 2L + 2W
Solve for either L or W (I am solving for L).
200 - 2W = 2L
(200 - 2W)/2 = L
100 - W = L

Area (A) = Length (L) · Width (W)
= (100 - W) · W
      = 100W - W²

Find the derivative, set it equal to 0, and solve:
dA/dW = 100 - 2W
   0 = 100 - 2W
   W = 50

refer to the equation above for L:
100 - W = L
100 - 50 = L
      50 = L

Dimensions for the maximum Area are 50 ft x 50 ft
