Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The median is the one in the middle.  For an <u>odd</u> number of seats, average the first and last seat numbers.

(1 + 23) / 2 = 24 / 2 = 12.  That means there will be 11 people on your left and 11 people on your right.

For an even number of seats, the same method doesn't work as well!  If there are 14 seats, for example,  (1 + 14) / 2 = 15 / 2 = 7.5,  and if you sit in "seat" 7 and a half, it will be awkward!

A rancher wishes to build a fence to enclose a rectangular pen having area 24 square yards. Along one side the fence is to be ma
Gnoma [55]

Answer:

The  value  is  C \approx \$76

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  area of the rectangular pen is  A =  24 \ yard^2

     The  cost of material used to make one side is  z = \$ 6

    The  cost of material used to make the other sides is  r  =  \$ 3

Now  , the fence to be build around the rectangular pen  has four sides, the first opposite sides are equal, let assume each of the to be x yard   and the other opposite sides are also equal as well let assume of the to be y yard

So the cost is mathematically represented as

       C =  zx  +  r (x + 2y )

=>   C =  6x  +  3(x + 2y)

=>   C =   9x  +  6y

Now the area of the fence is mathematically represented as

      A =  x* y =  24

=>    y  =  \frac{24}{x}

=>  C =   9x  +  6[\frac{24}{x} ]

=>   C =   9x  +  [\frac{144}{x} ]

Now differentiating

     C'  =  9 + 144*  (-2) x^{-2}

     C'  =  9 - 288x^{-2}

At minimum C' =  0

So  

     9 - 288x^{-2} =  0

     x^{-2} =  0.03125

    x =  \sqrt{\frac{1}{0.03125} }

    x =  5.66

Now substituting for x in the equation above to obtain minimum cost

       C =   9(5.66)  +  [\frac{144}{5.66} ]

       C \approx \$76
