S= one length of square 1
S+1 = one length square 2
S+2= one length square 3
Our equation would be
S^2+(S+1)^2+(S+2)^2=365
Idk if it would be called distribute but.. distribute
S^2+S^2+2S+1+S^2+4S+4=365
Add like terms
3S^2+6S-360=0
Divide everything. By 3
S^2+2S-120=0
Factor
(S-10)(S+12)=0
The two solutions are:
S-10=0
S=10
S+12=0
S=-12
Since a length can’t be a negative the only possible solution would be 10
Since a perimeter is all lengths added together we can multiply the length by four to get the perimeter
Square 1
10*4=40
Perimeter is 40cm
Square 2
S+1 =11
11*4=44
Perimeter is 44cm
Square 3
S+2=12
12*4=48
Perimeter is 48cm
Add all the perimeters together to get the total perimeter:
Total perimeter:
40+44+48=132
The total perimeter is 132cm
I hope this helps. Sorry if I messed up anything on here it was kinda hard to keep track of everything. Feel free to ask if you need anything cleared up :)
I believe the answer is D
Because 24x4 is 96
An exponential model can be described by the function

where: a is the initial population or the starting number, b is the base and x is the number of periods elapsed.
When the base of an exponential model is greater than 1 it is called a growth factor, but when it is less than 1 it is called a decay factor.
Given the exponential model

n is the final output of the exponential model, 20.5 is the starting number, 0.6394 is the base and t is the number of periods/time elapsed.
Here, the base is 0.6394 which is less than 1, hence a decay factor.
Therefore, <span>the
base, b, of the exponential model is 0.6394; It is a
decay factor.</span>
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
50% is the same as 1/2
1/2 of 30 is 15
