Answer:
Directions - Identify the key components, create an exponential equation, then answer the questions.
Exponential Form: y=a\cdot b^{x},\ a\ is\ the\ \textit{starting}\ \textit{value},\ b\ is\ the\ base\ (rate).\y=a⋅b
x
, a is the starting value, b is the base (rate).
In a small town, the stray dog population is rapidly increasing. there are currently 15 stray dogs, and it is estimated that the population will triple every year. How many dogs will there be after 1 year? 2 years? 3 years?
1) a = 15
4) Dogs after 1 years = 45
2) b = 3
5) Dogs after 2 years = 135
3) Equation:
y= 15 ×3x
6) Dogs after 3 years =
405

I think it's d okay maybe
Answer:
424 grams for the small one and 510 grams for the big one.
Step-by-step explanation:
Nice profile picture.
Alright assuming they mean total surface area since they didn't say lateral the equation to follow would be S= Ph + 2B
Start with P:
P stands for perimeter, so add up all the edges on one face of the cube.

Then your equation becomes
S= 68×h + 2B
h=height and that's obviously 17
so, S= 68×17 +2B
Now to find B. This is pretty easy. All you need to do is take 17×17 because you're finding the area of the base. This equals 289.
Finally this leaves us with the equation
S= 68×17+2×289
From there on you just solve it out.
This would leave you with 1734.
