Answer: 4
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
3(x) : 8
<u> *2 </u>: <u> *2 </u>
= 24 : 16
⇒ 6x = 24
⇒ x = 4
Firstly attention should pe paid to the exact words given in the problem and then only the answer can be easily deduced.
It is a 2 digit number and that is said in the problem
Now For the tens digit it has been said that it is 8 more than the ones digit. The ones digit cannot be zero and that is already mentioned in the problem.
So if we take the ones digit to be 1, then the tens digit will be= 8 +1
= 9
Now if we take the ones digit to be 2, then the tens digit will be = 2 + 8
= 10
So it cannot be 2 as the tens digit takes the number to a 3 digit number and it is not possible.
So the answer to this problem is 91.


notice... the dog's pen perimeter, does not include the side that's bordering the garden's, since that side will use the heavy duty fence, instead of the light one
so, the sum of both of those costs, will be the C(x)

so, just take the derivative of it, and set it to 0 to find the extremas, and do a first-derivative test for any minimum
