Answer:

44.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the mean of 14, 16, 16, 13, 23, x is 21, then we have 14 + 16 + 16 + 13 + 23 + x is equal to 126. Summing we have 14 + 16 + 16 + 13 + 23 = 82. 82 + x is equal to 126. X = 44.

A perfect square ends with the same two digits. How many possible values of this digit are there?
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

A perfect square is a whole number that is the square of another whole number.

n*n = N

where n and N are whole numbers.

Now, "a perfect square ends with the same two digits".

This can be really trivial.

For example, if we take the number 10, and we square it, we will have:

10*10 = 100

The last two digits of 100 are zeros, so it ends with the same two digits.

Now, if now we take:

100*100 = 10,000

10,000 is also a perfect square, and the two last digits are zeros again.

So we can see a pattern here, we can go forever with this:

1,000^2 = 1,000,000

10,000^2 = 100,000,000

etc...

So we can find infinite perfect squares that end with the same two digits.

You have D dollars to buy fence to enclose a rectangular plot of land (see figure at right). The fence for the top and bottom co
alex41 [277]

The perimeter of the rectangular plot of land is given by the expression below

P=2x+2y

On the other hand, since the available money to buy fence is D dollars,

\begin{gathered} D=4(2x)+3(2y) \\ \Rightarrow D=8x+6y \\ D\rightarrow\text{ constant} \end{gathered}

Furthermore, the area of the enclosed land is given by

A=xy

Solving the second equation for x,

\begin{gathered} D=8x+6y \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6y}{8} \end{gathered}

Substituting into the equation for the area,

\begin{gathered} A=(\frac{D-6y}{8})y \\ \Rightarrow A=\frac{D}{8}y-\frac{3}{4}y^2 \end{gathered}

To find the maximum possible area, solve A'(y)=0, as shown below

\begin{gathered} A^{\prime}(y)=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{D}{8}-\frac{3}{2}y=0 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{3}{2}y=\frac{D}{8} \\ \Rightarrow y=\frac{D}{12} \end{gathered}

Therefore, the corresponding value of x is

\begin{gathered} y=\frac{D}{12} \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{D-6(\frac{D}{12})}{8}=\frac{D-\frac{D}{2}}{8}=\frac{D}{16} \end{gathered}<h2>Thus, the dimensions of the fence that maximize the area are x=D/16 and y=D/12.</h2><h2>As for the used money,</h2>\begin{gathered} top,bottom:\frac{8D}{16}=\frac{D}{2} \\ Sides:\frac{6D}{12}=\frac{D}{2} \end{gathered}<h2>Half the money was used for the top and the bottom, while the other half was used for the sides.</h2>
